Psalms 89:34

“My covenant will I not break, etc.] Not the covenant at Sinai, as Aben Ezra, but the covenant of grace made with Christ, and which stands fast with him, (<198903>Psalm 89:3,28), which is firm, sure, and stable, and as immovable as mountains and hills, and more so, (<102305>2 Samuel 23:5 <235410> Isaiah 54:10) or “profane” f1282 it, though his people profane his statutes, (<198931>Psalm 89:31), he will not profane his covenant; though they violate his laws, he is a God keeping covenant with them, and will not break his word with them: nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips; any promise of his, respecting either the temporal, spiritual, or eternal welfare of his people: or “not…”

“My covenant will I not break - literally, I will not pollute, defile, profane. See the notes at Psalms 89:31, where the same word is used. God says that he will not do in regard to the covenant as they had done. Nor alter the thing ... - The promise which I have made. I will not make it a different thing. I will not modify its conditions, or withdraw it. It shall stand precisely as it was when I uttered it. What God promises will be exactly performed. return to 'Top of Page'”
