Psalms 89:15 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 89:15

13 You have a mighty arm;
Strong is Your hand, and high is Your right hand.

14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;
Mercy and truth go before Your face.

15 Blessed are the people who know the ^ajoyful sound!
They walk, O Lord, in the light of Your countenance.

16 In Your name they rejoice all day long,
And in Your righteousness they are exalted.

17 For You are the glory of their strength,
And in Your favor our¹ horn is ^aexalted.

18 For our shield belongs to the Lord,
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.

19 Then You spoke in a vision to Your¹ holy one,
And said: “I have given help to one who is mighty;
I have exalted one ^achosen from the people.
