Psalms 89:5

5 O Lord, the heavens ^{▼▼ As the following context makes clear, the personified “heavens” here stand by metonymy for the angelic beings that surround God’s heavenly throne.} praise your amazing deeds,
as well as your faithfulness in the angelic assembly. ^{▼▼ Heb “in the assembly of the holy ones.” The phrase “holy ones” sometimes refers to God’s people (Ps 34:9) or to their priestly leaders (2 Chr 35:3), but here it refers to God’s heavenly assembly and the angels that surround his throne (see vv. 6–7).}
