31 If his descendants forsake my teaching,do not follow my decrees,
32 If they fail to observe my statutes,do not keep my commandments,
33 I will punish their crime with a rodand their guilt with blows.
34 But I will not take my mercy from him,nor will I betray my bond of faithfulness.
35 I will not violate my covenant;the promise of my lips I will not alter.
36 By my holiness I swore once for all:I will never be false to David.
37 His dynasty will continue forever,his throne, like the sun before me.
