28 I will forever preserve My loving devotion for him, and My covenant with him will stand fast.
29 I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as the heavens endure.
30 If his sons forsake My law and do not walk in My judgments,
31 if they violate My statutes and fail to keep My commandments,
32 I will attend to their transgression with the rod, and to their iniquity with stripes.
33 But I will not withdraw My loving devotion from him, nor ever betray My faithfulness.
34 I will not violate My covenant or alter the utterance of My lips.
35 Once and for all I have sworn by My holiness—I will not lie to David—
36 his offspring shall endure forever, and his throne before Me like the sun,
37 like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky.” Selah
38 Now, however, You have spurned and rejected him; You are enraged by Your anointed one.
39 You have renounced the covenant with Your servant and sullied his crown in the dust.
40 You have broken down all his walls; You have reduced his strongholds to rubble.
