God's Covenant With David

20 So says Jehovah: If you can break My covenant of the day and My covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season, 21 then also may My covenant with David My servant be broken, that he should not have a son to reign on his throne, and My covenant with the Levites the priests, My ministers. 22 As the host of the heavens cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so I will multiply the seed of David My servant and the Levites who minister to Me.
