Psalms 89:38-45

38But you have spurned and rejected him; you are angry with your chosen king.

39You have repudiated your covenant with your servant; you have thrown his crown to the ground.

40You have broken down all his walls; you have made his strongholds a heap of ruins.

41All who pass by have robbed him; he has become an object of disdain to his neighbors.

42You have allowed his adversaries to be victorious, and all his enemies to rejoice.

43You turn back his sword from the adversary, and have not sustained him in battle.

44You have brought to an end his splendor, and have knocked his throne to the ground.

45You have cut short his youth, and have covered him with shame. (Selah)
