English Standard Version
28 My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,
and my (A)covenant will stand firm[a] for him.
29 I will establish his (B)offspring forever
and his (C)throne as (D)the days of the heavens.
30 (E)If his children forsake my law
and do not walk according to my rules,[b]
31 if they violate my statutes
and do not keep my commandments,
32 then I will punish their transgression with (F)the rod
and their iniquity with stripes,

or be false to my faithfulness.
34 I will not violate my (G)covenant

I will not (I)lie to David.

(K)his (L)throne as long as (M)the sun before me.

you are full of wrath against your (Q)anointed.

you have (T)defiled his (U)crown in the dust.
40 You have (V)breached all his walls;
you have laid his strongholds in ruins.
