Psalms 89:38-52
-
38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
-
39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
-
40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
-
41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.
-
42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
-
43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.
-
44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
-
45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.
-
46 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?
-
47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?
-
48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
-
49 Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
-
50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
-
51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
-
52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
