His Covenant

“JS^now, that the Lo7*d, thy God he is Qod, the Jaith/ut God, w?iic?i keepeth covenant and mercy with thetn that love him, and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations, ‘*

*’ My Covenant will 1 not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out o, my lips.’

“Twill not suffer my faithfulness to fail.

‘’ I have spoken it, I will also biing it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it,’’

He is faithful that promised.

I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David,’’

“Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David,”

‘’ God is not a m,an, that he should lie; hath he said and shall he not do it? hath he spoken and shall he not m,ake it good?”

F’orever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven; thy faithfulness is unto all generation, thy word is true from, the beginning.

“Thy faithfulness is unto all generations.”

‘^ The word of our God shall stand forever.”

‘’ So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth; it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the things whereto I sent it,”
