- "If his sons forsake my law and do not follow my statutes,
- if they violate my decrees and fail to keep my commands,
- I will punish their sin with the rod, their iniquity with flogging;
- but I will not take my love from him, nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.
- I will not violate my covenant or alter what my lips have uttered.
|
- Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness-- and I will not lie to David-
- that his line will continue forever and his throne endure before me like the sun;
- it will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky." Selah
