32. I will punish their sin with the rod,their iniquity with flogging;
33. but I will not take my love from him,nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.
34. I will not violate my covenantor alter what my lips have uttered.
35. Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness –and I will not lie to David –
36. that his line will continue for everand his throne endure before me like the sun;
37. it will be established for ever like the moon,the faithful witness in the sky.’
38. But you have rejected, you have spurned,you have been very angry with your anointed one.
39. You have renounced the covenant with your servantand have defiled his crown in the dust.
