| 1. | I will sing of the lovingkindness of Jehovah for ever: With my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. |
| 2. | For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever; Thy faithfulness wilt thou establish in the very heavens. |
| 3. | I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant: |
| 4. | Thy seed will I establish for ever, And build up thy throne to all generations. Selah |
| 5. | And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Jehovah; Thy faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones. |
| 6. | For who in the skies can be compared unto Jehovah? Who among the sons of the mighty is like unto Jehovah, |
| 7. | A God very terrible in the council of the holy ones, And to be feared above all them that are round about him? |
| 8. | O Jehovah God of hosts, Who is a mighty one, like unto thee, O Jehovah? And thy faithfulness is round about thee. |
| 9. | Thou rulest the pride of the sea: When the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them. |
| 10. | Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; Thou hast scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength. |
| 11. | The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: The world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them. |
| 12. | The north and the south, thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon rejoice in thy name. |
| 13. | Thou hast a mighty arm; Strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand. |
| 14. | Righteousness and justice are the foundation of thy throne: Lovingkindness and truth go before thy face. |
| 15. | Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: They walk, O Jehovah, in the light of thy countenance. |
| 16. | In thy name do they rejoice all the day; And in thy righteousness are they exalted. |
| 17. | For thou art the glory of their strength; And in thy favor our horn shall be exalted. |
| 18. | For our shield belongeth unto Jehovah; And our king to the Holy One of Israel. |
| 19. | Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. |
| 20. | I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him: |
| 21. | With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him. |
| 22. | The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. |
| 23. | And I will beat down his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him. |
| 24. | But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted. |
| 25. | I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. |
| 26. | He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. |
| 27. | I also will make him `my' first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth. |
| 28. | My lovingkindness will I keep for him for evermore; And my covenant shall stand fast with him. |
| 29. | His seed also will I make to endure for ever, And his throne as the days of heaven. |
| 30. | If his children forsake my law, And walk not in mine ordinances; |
| 31. | If they break my statutes, And keep not my commandments; |
| 32. | Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes. |
| 33. | But my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, Nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. |
| 34. | My covenant will I not break, Nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. |
| 35. | Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David: |
| 36. | His seed shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before me. |
| 37. | It shall be established for ever as the moon, And `as' the faithful witness in the sky. Selah |
| 38. | But thou hast cast off and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with thine anointed. |
| 39. | Thou hast abhorred the covenant of thy servant: Thou hast profaned his crown `by casting it' to the ground. |
| 40. | Thou hast broken down all his hedges; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin. |
| 41. | All that pass by the way rob him: He is become a reproach to his neighbors. |
| 42. | Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries; Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. |
| 43. | Yea, thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle. |
| 44. | Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground. |
| 45. | The days of his youth hast thou shortened: Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah |
| 46. | How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? `How long' shall thy wrath burn like fire? |
| 47. | Oh remember how short my time is: For what vanity hast thou created all the children of men! |
| 48. | What man is he that shall live and not see death, That shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah |
| 49. | Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, Which thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness? |
| 50. | Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom `the reproach of' all the mighty peoples, |
| 51. | Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed. |
| 52. | Blessed be Jehovah for evermore. Amen, and Amen. Psalm 90 A Prayer of Moses the man of God. |
