Psalms 89:37

35 Once and for all I have sworn by My holiness— I will not lie to David—

36 his offspring shall endure forever, and his throne before Me like the sun,

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

38 Now, however, You have spurned and rejected him; You are enraged by Your anointed one.

39 You have renounced the covenant with Your servant and sullied his crown in the dust.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
