A Contemplation of Ethan the Ezrahite.

1 I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever;
With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.

^aYour faithfulness You shall establish in the very heavens.”

3 “I^a have made a covenant with My chosen,
I have ^bsworn to My servant David:

4 ‘Your seed I will establish forever,
And build up your throne ^ato all generations.’ ” Selah
