Psalms 89:38-52

Rotherham(i) 38 Yet, thou thyself, hast cast off, and rejected, Thou hast been wroth with thine Anointed One! 39 Thou hast cast down the covenant of thy Servant, Thou hast profaned, to the earth, his crown; 40 Thou hast broken down all his defenses, Thou hast laid his fortresses in ruins; 41 All the passers by the way, have plundered him, He hath become a reproach to his neighbours; 42 Thou hast raised the right hand of his adversaries, Thou hast gladdened all his enemies; 43 Yea thou hast turned the edge of his sword, Neither hast thou caused him to stand in the battle; 44 Thou hast brought to an end his splendour, And, his throne––to the ground, hast thou hurled; 45 Thou hast shortened the days of his youths,––Thou hast covered him with shame. [Selah.] 46 How long, O Yahweh, Wilt thou hide thyself utterly? Shall thine indignation, burn like fire? 47 Remember how short–lived, I, am, Wherefore, in vain, hast thou created all the sons of Adam? 48 Who is the man that shall live, and not see death? That can deliver his soul from the hand of hades. [Selah.] 49 Where are thy former lovingkindnesses, O My Lord? Thou didst swear unto David, in thy faithfulness! 50 Remember, O My Lord, the reproach of thy servants, I have carried in my bosom the insult of the peoples: 51 In that thy foes have reproached, O Yahweh, In that they have reproached the footsteps of thine Anointed One! 52 Blessed be Yahweh to times age–abiding, Amen, and Amen!
