Recitation of the Davidic Covenant

19

Thou spakest then in a vision vnto thine Holy one, and saydest, I haue layde helpe vpon one that is mightie: I haue exalted one chosen out of the people.

20

I haue found Dauid my seruant: with mine holy oyle haue I anoynted him.

21

Therefore mine hande shall be established with him, and mine arme shall strengthen him.

22

The enemie shall not oppresse him, neither shall the wicked hurt him.

23

But I will destroy his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.

24

My trueth also and my mercie shall be with him, and in my Name shall his horne be exalted.

25

I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the floods.

26

He shall cry vnto mee, Thou art my Father, my God and the rocke of my saluation.

27

Also I wil make him my first borne, higher then the Kings of the earth.

28

My mercie will I keepe for him for euermore, and my couenant shall stande fast with him.

29

His seede also will I make to endure for euer, and his throne as the dayes of heauen.

30

But if his children forsake my Lawe, and walke not in my iudgements:

31

If they breake my statutes, and keepe not my commandements:

32

Then will I visite their transgression with the rod, and their iniquitie with strokes.

33

Yet my louing kindnesse will I not take from him, neither will I falsifie my trueth.

34

My couenant wil I not breake, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

35

I haue sworne once by mine holines, that I will not fayle Dauid, saying,

36

His seede shall endure for euer, and his throne shalbe as the sunne before me.

37

He shalbe established for euermore as the moone, and as a faythfull witnes in the heauen. Selah.
