God's Covenant with David

891 I will sing of the loving kindness of Yahweh forever.
With my mouth, I will make known your faithfulness to all generations. 2 I indeed declare, “Love stands firm forever.
You established the heavens.
Your faithfulness is in them.” 3 “I have made a covenant with my chosen one,
I have sworn to David, my servant, 4 ‘I will establish your seed forever,
and build up your throne to all generations.’” Selah.

Commentary on Psalm 89:1-4

(Read Psalm 89:1-4)

Though our expectations may be disappointed, yet God's promises are established in the heavens, in his eternal counsels; they are out of the reach of opposers in hell and earth. And faith in the boundless mercy and everlasting truth of God, may bring comfort even in the deepest trials.
