Psalm 89:39

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.

I will not violate my covenant or alter the word that went forth from my lips.

Then I said, "I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High."

I said in my alarm, "All mankind are liars."

Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand."

You have made his splendor to cease and cast his throne to the ground.

They set your sanctuary on fire; they profaned the dwelling place of your name, bringing it down to the ground.

For the enemy has pursued my soul; he has crushed my life to the ground; he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead.

And the high fortifications of his walls he will bring down, lay low, and cast to the ground, to the dust.

Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary, and deliver Jacob to utter destruction and Israel to reviling.

The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned!
