Psalms 89:38-45

Psalms 89

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

38Now, however, You have spurned and rejected him; You are enraged by Your anointed one.

39You have renounced the covenant with Your servant and sullied his crown in the dust.

40You have broken down all his walls; You have reduced his strongholds to rubble.

41All who pass by plunder him; he has become a reproach to his neighbors.

42You have exalted the right hand of his foes; You have made all his enemies rejoice.

43You have bent the edge of his sword and have not sustained him in battle.

44You have ended his splendor and cast his throne to the ground.

45You have cut short the days of his youth; You have covered him with shame. Selah
