27. He will invoke me: "You are my father, my God, and the support of my salvation."
28. And I will make him the first-born, preeminent before the kings of the earth.
29. I will preserve my mercy for him eternally, and my covenant for him faithfully.
30. And I will set his offspring from generation to generation, and his throne like the days of heaven.
31. But if his sons abandon my law, and if they do not walk in my judgments,
32. if they profane my justices, and if they do not keep my commandments:
33. I will visit their iniquities with a rod, and their sins with a beating.
34. But I will not scatter my mercy from him, and I will not do harm to my truth.
