Psalms 89:43-52

⁴³Also — Thou turnest back the sharpness of his sword, And hast not established him in battle,

⁴⁴Hast caused him to cease from his brightness, And his throne to the earth hast cast down.

⁴⁵Thou hast shortened the days of his youth, Hast covered him over with shame. Selah.

⁴⁶Till when, O Jehovah, art Thou hidden? For ever doth Thy fury burn as fire?

⁴⁷Remember, I pray Thee, what is life-time? Wherefore in vain hast Thou created All the sons of men?

⁴⁸Who is the man that liveth, and doth not see death? He delivereth his soul from the hand of Sheol. Selah.

⁴⁹Where are Thy former kindnesses, O Lord. Thou hast sworn to David in Thy faithfulness,

⁵⁰Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Thy servants, I have borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,

⁵¹Wherewith Thine enemies reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith they have reproached The steps of Thine anointed.

⁵²Blessed is Jehovah to the age. Amen, and amen!
