Blessed be the LORD
This phrase begins with an expression of praise and adoration towards God. The Hebrew word for "blessed" is "barak," which conveys a sense of kneeling in worship and reverence. It is a recognition of God's supreme authority and goodness. In the context of Psalm 89, which deals with God's covenant with David and the challenges faced by the Israelites, this blessing is a declaration of faith and trust in God's eternal nature and His promises. Historically, the Israelites often used such expressions in their worship, acknowledging God's sovereignty and expressing gratitude for His enduring faithfulness.

forever
The word "forever" in Hebrew is "olam," which signifies eternity or an unending duration. This emphasizes the eternal nature of God's reign and His unchanging character. In the context of the psalm, it reassures the faithful that despite temporal challenges and apparent setbacks, God's covenant and His promises are everlasting. This eternal perspective is crucial for believers, as it encourages them to look beyond present circumstances and trust in God's ultimate plan and purpose.

Amen and Amen
The repetition of "Amen" serves as a strong affirmation of the truth and certainty of the preceding statement. "Amen" is a Hebrew word that means "truly" or "so be it," and it is used to express agreement and confirmation. In the biblical context, saying "Amen" is a way for the community of believers to collectively affirm their faith and trust in God's promises. The double use of "Amen" in this verse underscores the psalmist's deep conviction and the communal nature of this declaration of faith. It invites all who hear or read the psalm to join in this affirmation, reinforcing the communal and enduring nature of worship and trust in God.

Verse 52. - Blessed be the Lord forevermore. Amen, and Amen. This detached verse, not necessarily from the same hand as the rest of the psalm, winds up, with the usual refrain, the Third Book.
