32I will punish their transgressions with a rod, And their iniquity with stripes.
33But my kindness will I not withdraw from him, Nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34I will not break my covenant, Nor alter what hath gone from my lips.
35Once have I sworn in my holiness, That I will not be false unto David.
36His family shall endure for ever, And his throne as the sun before me.
37It shall be established for ever like the moon; Like the faithful witness in the sky.”
38But now thou forsakest and abhorrest, And art angry with, thine anointed.
39Thou hast made void the covenant with thy servant; Thou hast cast his crown to the ground.
40Thou hast broken down all his hedges; Thou hast brought his strongholds to ruin.
41All who pass by plunder him; He is a reproach to his neighbors.
