Psalms 89:43-50

⁴³Yea, thou turnest back the edge of his sword, And hast not made him to stand in the battle.

⁴⁴Thou hast made his brightness to cease, And cast his throne down to the ground.

⁴⁵The days of his youth hast thou shortened: Thou hast covered him with shame. Selah

⁴⁶How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? How long shall thy wrath burn like fire?

⁴⁷Oh remember how short my time is: For what vanity hast thou created all the children of men!

⁴⁸What man is he that shall live and not see death, That shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah

⁴⁹Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, Which thou swarest unto David in thy faithfulness?

⁵⁰Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; How I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty peoples,
