31. if they disregard my instructionsand do not keep my commandments,
32. then I will punish them for their sins;I will make them suffer for their wrongs.
33. But I will not stop loving Davidor fail to keep my promise to him.
34. I will not break my covenant with himor take back even one promise I made him.
35. “Once and for all I have promised by my holy name:I will never lie to David.
36. He will always have descendants,and I will watch over his kingdom as long as the sun shines.
37. It will be as permanent as the moon,that faithful witness in the sky.”
