God's Covenant With David

20 "This is what the LORD says: "If you could break my covenant with the day and night so that day and night wouldn't occur at the proper time, 21 then my covenant with my servant David might also be broken so that he wouldn't have a son sitting on his throne, and so also with my servants the Levitical priests. 22 As the heavenly bodies cannot be counted, and the sands of the sea cannot be measured, so I'll multiply the descendants of my servant David and the descendants of Levi who serve me.'"
