Psalms 89:29-37 ▼

29 I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as heaven lasts.

30 If his sons abandon my instruction and do not live by my ordinances,

31 if they dishonor my statutes and do not keep my commands,

32 then I will call their rebellion to account with the rod, their iniquity with blows.

33 But I will not withdraw my faithful love from him or betray my faithfulness.

34 I will not violate my covenant or change what my lips have said.

35 Once and for all I have sworn an oath by my holiness; I will not lie to David.

36 His offspring will continue forever, his throne like the sun before me,

37 like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky.” Selah
