^{20 Ref} I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him:

^{21 Ref} With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him.

^{22 Ref} The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

^{23 Ref} And I will beat down his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him.

^{24 Ref} But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted.

^{25 Ref} I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.

^{26 Ref} He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.

^{27 Ref} I also will make him `my' first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth.

^{28 Ref} My lovingkindness will I keep for him for evermore; And my covenant shall stand fast with him.
