Psalm 89:49

Tree of Life Version

What man can live and not see death? Can he deliver himself from the clutches of Sheol? Selah

See the chapter Copy

Yet My lovingkindness will not be withdrawn from him as I withdrew it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.

but He with an oath—sworn by the One who said to Him, “Adonai has sworn and will not change His mind, ‘You are a kohen forever.’”)

Incline your ear and come to Me. Listen, so that your soul may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the trustworthy loyalty to David.

I will not violate My covenant, nor alter what My lips have uttered.

For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men seek after my soul. They do not set God before them. Selah

May God do so to Abner and even more if, as Adonai has sworn to David, I don’t accomplish this for him—

No man can redeem his brother, or give to God a ransom for him.

Will he live forever— and never see the Pit?
