35 Once by my holiness I sware,to David I'll not lie;
36 His seed and throne shall, as the sun,before me last for aye.
37 It, like the moon, shall ever beestablish'd stedfastly;And like to that which in the heav'ndoth witness faithfully.
38 But thou, displeased, hast cast off,thou didst abhor and loathe;With him that thine anointed isthou hast been very wroth.
39 Thou hast thy servant's covenantmade void, and quite cast by;Thou hast profan'd his crown, while itcast on the ground doth lie.
40 Thou all his hedges hast broke down,his strong holds down hast torn.
41 He to all passers-by a spoil,to neighbours is a scorn.
