Psalm 89:30–52

^30pIf his children ^qforsake my law,

And walk not in my judgments;

³¹If they ^†break my statutes,

And keep not my commandments;

³²Then will I ^rvisit their transgression with ^sthe rod,

And their iniquity with ^sstripes.

³³Nevertheless ^cmy lovingkindness ^†will I not utterly take from him,

Nor suffer ^cmy faithfulness ^†to fail.

^34lMy covenant will I not ^tbreak,

Nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

³⁵Once have I ^usworn ^vby my holiness

^†That I will not lie unto David.

^36mHis seed shall endure for ever,

And ⁿhis throne ^xas the sun before me.

³⁷It shall be established for ever as ^xthe moon,

And as a faithful ^ywitness in heaven. Selah.

³⁸But thou hast ^zcast off and ^ababhorred,

Thou ^achast been wroth with ^dthine anointed.

³⁹Thou hast ^emade void the covenant of thy servant:

^fThou hast profaned ^ghis crown by casting it ^hto the ground.

⁴⁰ⁱThou hast broken down all his hedges;

Thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

⁴¹ⁱAll that pass by the way spoil him:

He is ^ja reproach to his neighbours.

⁴²Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries;

Thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

⁴³Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword,

And hast not made him to stand in the battle.

⁴⁴Thou hast made his ^†glory to cease,

And cast his throne down ^hto the ground.

^45kThe days of his youth hast thou shortened:

Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.

^46lmHow long, Lord? ^mwilt thou hide thyself ^mfor ever?

Shall thy wrath ⁿburn like fire?

^47oRemember how short ^pmy time is:

Wherefore hast thou made all ^qmen in vain?

^48rWhat man is he that liveth, and shall not ^ssee death?

Shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

⁴⁹Lord, where are thy former ^tlovingkindnesses,

Which thou ^uswarest unto David in thy ^tvtruth?

^50wRemember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants;

How I do bear ^xin my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

⁵¹Wherewith ^wthine enemies have reproached, O Lord;

Wherewith they have reproached the ^yfootsteps of ^dthine anointed.

^52zBlessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
