Psalms 89:24
22 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.
My faithfulness and loving devotion will be with him, and through My name his horn will be exalted.
25 I will set his hand over the sea, and his right hand upon the rivers.
26 He will call to Me, ‘You are my Father, my God, the Rock of my salvation.’
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.
