Psalms 89:42-52 New Century Version (NCV)

42. You have given strength to his enemiesand have made them all happy.

43. You have made his sword useless;you did not help him stand in battle.

44. You have kept him from winningand have thrown his throne to the ground.

45. You have cut his life shortand covered him with shame.Selah

46. Lord, how long will this go on?Will you ignore us forever?How long will your anger burn like a fire?

47. Remember how short my life is.Why did you create us? For nothing?

48. What person alive will not die?Who can escape the grave?Selah

49. Lord, where is your love from times past,which in your loyalty you promised to David?

50. Lord, remember how they insulted your servant;remember how I have suffered the insults of the nations.

51. Lord, remember how your enemies insulted youand how they insulted your appointed king wherever he went.

52. Praise the Lord forever!Amen and amen.
