Psalm 89:39-48

New International Reader's Version

³⁹ You have broken the covenant you made with him.
    You have thrown your servant’s crown into the dirt.
⁴⁰ You have broken through the walls around his city.
    You have completely destroyed his secure places.
⁴¹ All those who pass by have carried off what belonged to him.
    His neighbors make fun of him.
⁴² You have made his enemies strong.
    You have made all of them happy.
⁴³ You have made his sword useless.
    You have not helped him in battle.
⁴⁴ You have put an end to his glory.
    You have knocked his throne to the ground.
⁴⁵ You have cut short the days of his life.
    You have covered him with shame.
