Do not abhor [us,] for Your name's sake; Do not disgrace the throne of Your glory. Remember, do not break Your covenant with us.

" Nevertheless I will remember My covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.

To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers And to remember His holy covenant,

For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed," Says the LORD, who has mercy on you.
