Psalms 89:35-49

Psalms 89:35-49 CSB

Once and for all I have sworn an oath by my holiness; I will not lie to David.  His offspring will continue forever, his throne like the sun before me,  like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky.”  Selah But you have spurned and rejected him; you have become enraged with your anointed.  You have repudiated the covenant with your servant; you have completely dishonored his crown.  , You have broken down all his walls; you have reduced his fortified cities to ruins.  All who pass by plunder him;  he has become an object of ridicule to his neighbors.  You have lifted high the right hand of his foes; you have made all his enemies rejoice.  You have also turned back his sharp sword and have not let him stand in battle.  You have made his splendor   cease and have overturned his throne.  You have shortened the days of his youth; you have covered him with shame.  Selah How long, LORD? Will you hide forever? Will your anger keep burning like fire?  Remember how short my life is. Have you created everyone for nothing?  What courageous person can live and never see death? Who can save himself from the power of Sheol?  Selah Lord, where are the former acts of your faithful love that you swore to David in your faithfulness?
