Psalms 89:22

20 I have found My servant David; with My sacred oil I have anointed him.

21 My hand will sustain him; surely My arm will strengthen him.

No enemy will exact tribute; no wicked man will oppress him.

23 I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who hate him.

24 My faithfulness and loving devotion will be with him, and through My name his horn will be exalted.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
