the faithful witness in the sky.”

35 Once for all I have sworn by my holiness;

36 His offspring shall endure forever,

his throne as long as the sun before me.

37 Like the moon it shall be established forever,

a faithful witness in the skies.” Selah

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness

That I will not lie unto David.

And his throne as the sun before me.

37 It shall be established for ever as the moon,

And as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

35 I have sworn an oath to David,

and in my holiness I cannot lie:

36 His dynasty will go on forever;

his kingdom will endure as the sun.

37 It will be as eternal as the moon,

my faithful witness in the sky!”
