Psalms 89:43-52 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

43. You have made his sword useless.You did not help him stand in battle.

44. You have kept him from winning.You threw his throne to the ground.

45. You have cut his life short.You have covered him with shame. Selah

46. Lord, how long will this go on?Will you ignore us forever?How long will your anger burn like a fire?

47. Remember how short my life is.Why did you create us anyway?

48. What man alive will not die?Can he escape the grave? Selah

49. Lord, where is your love from times past?With loyalty you promised it to David.

50. Lord, remember how they insulted your servant.Remember how I have suffered the insults of the nations.

51. Lord, remember how your enemies insulted you.Remember how they insulted your appointed king wherever he went.

52. Praise the Lord forever!
