The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the LORD and against His Anointed, [saying,]

Great deliverance He gives to His king, And shows mercy to His anointed, To David and his descendants forevermore.

The LORD [is] their strength, And He [is] the saving refuge of His anointed.

I have found My servant David; With My holy oil I have anointed him,

The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

"Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ."

"let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.

"And may You hear the supplication of Your servant and of Your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Hear in heaven Your dwelling place; and when You hear, forgive.

"hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You, that all peoples of the earth may know Your name and fear You, as [do] Your people Israel, and that they may know that this temple which I have built is called by Your name.

"In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name [is] Holy: "I dwell in the high and holy [place,] With him [who] has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

Look down from heaven, And see from Your habitation, holy and glorious. Where [are] Your zeal and Your strength, The yearning of Your heart and Your mercies toward me? Are they restrained?

Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust [in You] From those who rise up [against them.]

You have also given me the shield of Your salvation; Your right hand has held me up, Your gentleness has made me great.

"Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.

"Him God has exalted to His right hand [to be] Prince and Savior, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.
