Psalms 89:26-32
He will call to me,‘ You are my Father, my God, the rock of my salvation.’I will also make him my firstborn, greatest of the kings of the earth.I will always preserve my faithful love for him, and my covenant with him will endure.I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as heaven lasts.If his sons abandon my instruction and do not live by my ordinances,if they dishonor my statutes and do not keep my commands,then I will call their rebellion to account with the rod, their iniquity with blows.

Ezekiel 19:11-14
It had strong branches, fit for the scepters of rulers; its height towered among the clouds. So it was conspicuous for its height as well as its many branches.But it was uprooted in fury, thrown to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit. Its strong branches were torn off and dried up; fire consumed them.Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land.Fire has gone out from its main branch and has devoured its fruit, so that it no longer has a strong branch, a scepter for ruling. This is a lament and should be used as a lament.”

Psalms 89:38-45
But you have spurned and rejected him; you have become enraged with your anointed.You have repudiated the covenant with your servant; you have completely dishonored his crown.You have broken down all his walls; you have reduced his fortified cities to ruins.All who pass by plunder him; he has become an object of ridicule to his neighbors.You have lifted high the right hand of his foes; you have made all his enemies rejoice.You have also turned back his sharp sword and have not let him stand in battle.You have made his splendor cease and have overturned his throne.You have shortened the days of his youth; you have covered him with shame. Selah

Amos 6:3-7
You dismiss any thought of the evil day and bring in a reign of violence.They lie on beds inlaid with ivory, sprawled out on their couches, and dine on lambs from the flock and calves from the stall.They improvise songs to the sound of the harp and invent their own musical instruments like David.They drink wine by the bowlful and anoint themselves with the finest oils but do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph.Therefore, they will now go into exile as the first of the captives, and the feasting of those who sprawl out will come to an end.

Isaiah 5:12-14
At their feasts they have lyre, harp, tambourine, flute, and wine. They do not perceive the LORD’s actions, and they do not see the work of his hands.Therefore my people will go into exile because they lack knowledge; her dignitaries are starving, and her masses are parched with thirst.Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat and opens wide its enormous jaws, and down go Zion’s dignitaries, her masses, her crowds, and those who celebrate in her!

When my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens, it will then come down on Edom and on the people I have set apart for destruction.The LORD’s sword is covered with blood. It drips with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
