Psalms 89:43-52

⁴³You have repelled his sharp sword; you have not helped him in battle.

⁴⁴You took away his glory; you threw his throne to the ground.

⁴⁵You have made him grow old before his time; you have totally humiliated him. Selah.

⁴⁶How long, Lord? Will you hide yourself from us forever, your anger burning like fire?

⁴⁷Remember me—my life is so short! Why did you bother creating futile humanity?

⁴⁸There's no one who doesn't die—no one can save themselves from the power of the grave. Selah.

⁴⁹Where is the trustworthy love you used to have, Lord, that you faithfully promised to David?

⁵⁰Don't forget, Lord, how your servants are being humiliated! I'm burdened down with the insults of so many nations!

⁵¹Your enemies taunt me, Lord, mocking your king wherever he goes.

⁵²May the Lord be blessed for ever. Amen and amen.
