29 So I will set up his (A)seed to endure forever
And his (B)throne (C)as the days of heaven.

30 “If his sons (D)forsake My law
And do not walk in My judgments,
31 If they profane My statutes
And do not keep My commandments,
32 Then I will punish their transgression with the (E)rod
And their iniquity with striking.
33 But I will not break off (F)My lovingkindness from him,
Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.
34 My (G)covenant I will not profane,
Nor will I (H)alter what comes forth from My lips.
35 [a]Once I have (I)sworn by My holiness;
I will not lie to David.
36 His (J)seed shall endure forever
And his (K)throne (L)as the sun before Me.
37 It shall be established forever (M)like the moon,
And the (N)witness in the sky is faithful.” [b]Selah.
