⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:13} Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, [and] high is thy right hand.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:14} Justice and judgment [are] the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:16} In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:31} If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:33} Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:35} Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:38} But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:39} Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown [by casting it] to the ground.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:40} Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.
⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:48} What man [is he that] liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:49} Lord, where [are] thy former lovingkindnesses, [which] thou swarest unto David in thy truth?
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:50} Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; [how] I do bear in my bosom [the reproach of] all the mighty people;
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:51} Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
{Psalms 89:52} Blessed [be] the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
