| Holman Christian Standard (CSB) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 30 If his sons forsake My instruction and do not live by My ordinances, | 30 "If his sons forsake my law and do not follow my statutes, |
| 31 if they dishonor My statutes and do not keep My commandments, | 31 if they violate my decrees and fail to keep my commands, |
| 32 then I will call their rebellion to account with the rod, their sin with blows. | 32 I will punish their sin with the rod, their iniquity with flogging; |
| 33 But I will not withdraw My faithful love from him or betray My faithfulness. | 33 but I will not take my love from him, nor will I ever betray my faithfulness. |
| 34 I will not violate My covenant or change what My lips have said. | 34 I will not violate my covenant or alter what my lips have uttered. |
| 35 Once and for all I have sworn an oath by My holiness; I will not lie to David. | 35 Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness-- and I will not lie to David-- |
| 36 His offspring will continue forever, his throne like the sun before Me, | 36 that his line will continue forever and his throne endure before me like the sun; |
| 37 like the moon, established forever, a faithful witness in the sky." Selah | 37 it will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky." "Selah" |
