Psalm 89:35–38

35 Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness—

and I will not lie to David—

36 that his line will continue forever

and his throne endure before me like the sun;

37 it will be established forever like the moon,

the faithful witness in the sky.”

38 But you have rejected, you have spurned,

you have been very angry with your anointed one.

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness

That I will not lie unto David.

36 His seed shall endure for ever,

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.

38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred,

Thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.

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!”

Interlude

38 But now you have rejected him and cast him off.

You are angry with your anointed king.

35 Once I have sworn by My holiness;

I will not lie to David:

36 His seed shall endure forever,

And his throne as the sun before Me;

37 It shall be established forever like the moon,

Even like the faithful witness in the sky.”

Selah

38 But You have cast off and abhorred,

You have been furious with Your anointed.

35 I have promised by my holiness,

I will not lie to David.

36 His family will go on forever.

His kingdom will last before me like the sun.

37 It will continue forever, like the moon,

like a dependable witness in the sky.”

Selah

38 But now you have refused and rejected your appointed king.

You have been angry with him.

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness:

I will not lie unto David:

36 His seed shall endure for ever,

And his throne as the sun before me.

37 It shall be established for ever as the moon,

And as the faithful witness in the sky. Selah

38 But thou hast cast off and rejected,

Thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.

35 Once have I sworn by my holiness; I will not lie unto David: 36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me; 37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and the witness in the sky is firm. Selah.

38 But thou hast rejected and cast off; thou hast been very wroth with thine anointed:

35 On my holiness I have taken an oath once and for all: 

I will not lie to David. 

36 His dynasty will last forever. 

His throne will be in my presence like the sun. 

37 Like the moon his throne will stand firm forever. 

It will be like a faithful witness in heaven.” 

38 But you have despised, rejected, 

and become angry with your anointed one. 

35 Once and for all

I have sworn an oath by My holiness;

I will not lie to David.

36 His offspring will continue forever,

his throne like the sun before Me,

37 like the moon, established forever,

a faithful witness in the sky.” Selah

38 But You have spurned and rejected him;

You have become enraged with Your anointed.

35 Once and for all I have sworn by my holiness;

I will not lie to David.

36 His line shall continue forever,

and his throne endure before me like the sun.

37 It shall be established forever like the moon,

an enduring witness in the skies.”   Selah

38 But now you have spurned and rejected him;

you are full of wrath against your anointed.

35 Once I have sworn by my holiness,

‘I will surely not lie to David,

36 His offspring will endure forever,

and his throne as the sun before me.

37 Like the moon it will be steadfast forever,

and like an enduring witness in the sky.’ ” Selah

38 But you have spurned and rejected;

you are very angry with your anointed one.

35 Once and for all, I have made a promise with an oath.

It is based on my holiness.

And I will not lie to David.

36 His family line will continue forever.

His kingdom will last as long as the sun.

37 It will last forever like the moon,

that faithful witness in the sky.” Selah

38 But you have turned your back on your anointed king.

You have been very angry with him.

35 “Once I have sworn by My holiness;

I will not lie to David.

36 “His descendants shall endure forever

And his throne as the sun before Me.

37 “It shall be established forever like the moon,

And the witness in the sky is faithful.”

Selah.

38 But You have cast off and rejected,

You have been full of wrath against Your anointed.
