The King James Version Bible

Psalms 89:35-45

  1. Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

  2. His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

  3. It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

  4. But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.

  5. Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.

  6. Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

  7. All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.

  8. Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

  9. Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.

  10. Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.

  11. The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.
