Psalms 89
35 Ref Once have I sworn by my holiness, I will not lie to David.
36 Ref His seed will endure forever, His throne like the sun before me.
37 Ref It will be established forever like the moon, The faithful witness in the sky." Selah.
38 Ref But you have rejected and spurned. You have been angry with your anointed.
39 Ref You have renounced the covenant of your servant. You have defiled his crown in the dust.
40 Ref You have broken down all his hedges. You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41 Ref All who pass by the way rob him. He has become a reproach to his neighbors.
42 Ref You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries. You have made all of his enemies rejoice.
43 Ref Yes, you turn back the edge of his sword, And haven't supported him in battle.
44 Ref You have ended his splendor, And thrown his throne down to the ground.
45 Ref You have shortened the days of his youth. You have covered him with shame. Selah.
