Psalms 89:26-52
26He will call to Me, ‘You are my Father, my God, the Rock of my salvation.’
27I will indeed appoint him as My firstborn,the highest of the kings of the earth.28I will forever preserve My loving devotion for him,and My covenant with him will stand fast.29I will establish his line forever,his throne as long as the heavens endure.
30If his sons forsake My lawand do not walk in My judgments,31if they violate My statutesand fail to keep My commandments,32I will attend to their transgression with the rod,and to their iniquity with stripes.
33But I will not withdraw My loving devotion from him,nor ever betray My faithfulness.34I will not violate My covenantor alter the utterance of My lips.35Once and for all I have sworn by My holiness—I will not lie to David—36his offspring shall endure forever,and his throne before Me like the sun,37like the moon, established forever,a faithful witness in the sky.”Selah38Now, however, You have spurned and rejected him;You are enraged by Your anointed one.39You have renounced the covenant with Your servantand sullied his crown in the dust.40You have broken down all his walls;You have reduced his strongholds to rubble.41All who pass by plunder him;he has become a reproach to his neighbors.
42You have exalted the right hand of his foes;You have made all his enemies rejoice.43You have bent the edge of his swordand have not sustained him in battle.44You have ended his splendorand cast his throne to the ground.45You have cut short the days of his youth;You have covered him with shame.Selah46How long, O LORD?Will You hide Yourself forever?Will Your wrath keep burning like fire?47Remember the briefness of my lifespan!For what futility You have created all men!48What man can live and never see death?Can he deliver his soul from the power of Sheol?Selah49Where, O Lord, is Your loving devotion of old,which You faithfully swore to David?50Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Your servants,which I bear in my heart from so many people—51how Your enemies have taunted, O LORD,and have mocked every step of Your anointed one!
52Blessed be the LORD forever!
Amen and amen.
