Psalms 89:35-49

Psalms 89:35-49 NCV

I have promised by my holiness, I will not lie to David. His family will go on forever. His kingdom will last before me like the sun. It will continue forever, like the moon, like a dependable witness in the sky.”Selah But now you have refused and rejected your appointed king. You have been angry with him. You have abandoned the agreement with your servant and thrown his crown to the ground. You have torn down all his city walls; you have turned his strong cities into ruins. Everyone who passes by steals from him. His neighbors insult him. You have given strength to his enemies and have made them all happy. You have made his sword useless; you did not help him stand in battle. You have kept him from winning and have thrown his throne to the ground. You have cut his life short and covered him with shame.Selah LORD, how long will this go on? Will you ignore us forever? How long will your anger burn like a fire? Remember how short my life is. Why did you create us? For nothing? What person alive will not die? Who can escape the grave?Selah Lord, where is your love from times past, which in your loyalty you promised to David?
