21
With whom My hand shall be established; Also My arm shall strengthen him.
22
The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23
I will beat down his foes before his face, And plague those who hate him.
24
"But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him, And in My name his horn shall be exalted.
25
Also I will set his hand over the sea, And his right hand over the rivers.
26
He shall cry to Me, 'You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.'
27
Also I will make him My firstborn, The highest of the kings of the earth.
28
My mercy I will keep for him forever, And My covenant shall stand firm with him.
29
His seed also I will make to endure forever, And his throne as the days of heaven.
30
"If his sons forsake My law And do not walk in My judgments,
31
If they break My statutes And do not keep My commandments,
32
Then I will punish their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes.
33
Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail.
34
My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
35
Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David:
36
His seed shall endure forever, And his throne as the sun before Me;
37
It shall be established forever like the moon, Even like the faithful witness in the sky." Selah
38
But You have cast off and abhorred, You have been furious with Your anointed.
39
You have renounced the covenant of Your servant; You have profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40
You have broken down all his hedges; You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41
All who pass by the way plunder him; He is a reproach to his neighbors.
