25. I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26. He shall cry to me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27. Also I will make him my first-born, higher than the kings of the earth.
28. My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29. His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30. If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31. If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32. Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33. Nevertheless my loving-kindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
