Bible in Basic English
"Then I will send punishment on them for their sin; my rod will be the reward of their evil-doing."
— Psalms 89:32, Bible in Basic English
“Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.”
His seed will keep their place for ever; his kingdom will be eternal, like the heavens.
If his children give up my law, and are not ruled by my decisions;
If my rules are broken, and my orders are not kept;
Then I will send punishment on them for their sin; my rod will be the reward of their evil-doing.
But I will not take away my mercy from him, and will not be false to my faith.
I will be true to my agreement; the things which have gone out of my lips will not be changed.
I have made an oath once by my holy name, that I will not be false to David.
