Psalms 89:38-52

38But You have 1cast off and 2rejected, You have been full of wrath 3against Your 4anointed.39You have 5spurned the covenant of Your servant; You have 6profaned 7his crown 8in the dust.40You have 9broken down all his walls; You have 10brought his strongholds to ruin.41 11All who pass along the way plunder him; He has become a 12reproach to his neighbors.42You have 13exalted the right hand of his adversaries; You have 14made all his enemies rejoice.43You also turn back the edge of his sword And have 15not made him stand in battle.44You have made his 16 17splendor to cease And cast his throne to the ground.45You have 18shortened the days of his youth; You have 19covered him with shame. Selah.

46 20How long, O Lord? Will You hide Yourself forever? Will Your 21wrath burn like fire?47 22Remember 23what my span of life is; For what 24vanity 25You have created all the sons of men!48What man can live and not 26see death? Can he 27deliver his soul from the 28power of 29Sheol? Selah.

49Where are Your former lovingkindnesses, O Lord, Which You 30swore to David in Your faithfulness?50Remember, O Lord, the 31reproach of Your servants; 32How I bear in my bosom the reproach of all the many peoples,51With which 33Your enemies have reproached, O Lord, With which they have reproached the footsteps of 34Your anointed.

52 35Blessed be the Lord forever! Amen and Amen.
