25. I will set his hand on the seaand his right hand on the rivers.
26. He shall cry unto Me, ‘You are my Father, my God,and the Rock of my salvation.’
27. Also I will make him my firstborn,the highest of the kings of the earth.
28. In My mercy I will keep him forever,and My covenant shall stand firm with him.
29. His offspring also I will establish foreverand his throne as the days of heaven.
30. “If his children forsake My lawand do not walk in My judgments,
31. if they break My statutesand do not keep My commandments,
32. then I will punish their transgression with the rodand their iniquity with lashes.
33. Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not remove from himnor be false in My faithfulness.
34. My covenant I will not violatenor alter the word that has gone out from My lips.
35. Once and for all I have sworn by My holinessthat I will not lie to David:
36. His offspring shall endure forever,and his throne as the sun before Me;
37. it shall be established forever as the moonand as a faithful witness in the heavens.” Selah
38. But now You have cast off and rejected him,You have been wrathful with Your anointed king.
39. You have renounced the covenant with Your servant;You have defiled his crown by casting it to the ground.
40. You have broken down all his walls;You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41. All who pass by the way plunder him;he is a reproach to his neighbors.
