26. He will call to me, ‘You are my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation!’
27. I will also appoint him my firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
28. I will keep my loving kindness for him forever more. My covenant will stand firm with him.
29. I will also make his offspring endure forever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30. If his children forsake my law, and don’t walk in my ordinances;
31. if they break my statutes, and don’t keep my commandments;
32. then I will punish their sin with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33. But I will not completely take my loving kindness from him, nor allow my faithfulness to fail.
34. I will not break my covenant, nor alter what my lips have uttered.
35. Once I have sworn by my holiness, I will not lie to David.
36. His offspring will endure forever, his throne like the sun before me.
