In this psalm, the writer makes note that between Yahweh and the Hebrews, his chosen people, there is a covenant, a contract between God and humans, as individuals and as a group, a covenant that binds both parties forever.
Online a biblical covenant (www.biblestudytools.com/dictionary/covenant) is described as a commitment that God initiates between God and the Hebrews, and that the sinful, weak, vacillating Hebrews often stray from this commitment to honor and serve God.
Under Mavellonialism, I would recommend that the Mother and Father would like to honor and extend that ancient covenant set up between Yahweh and his chosen people, the Hebrews. De would seek to extend that covenant to all peoples and individuals, all over the earth. May we agree to the contract, and not stray from our commitments to the Mother and Father, and all other good deities that people choose to worship and ally themselves with:
"He, the Lord, is our God; throughout the earth his judgments prevail. He remembers forever his covenant which he made binding for a thousand generations--Which he entered into with Abraham and by his oath to Isaac; Which he established for Jacob by statute, for Israel is an everlasting covenant, Saying, 'To you I give the land of Canaan as your allotted inheritance."
God makes the covenant extend forward upon future generations into perpetuity. God's commitment is unwavering and permanent. De never breaks his word or goes back on De's promises, and De expects similar faithful worship and pratice from humans going forth.
Our inheritance from the Creator couple is our existence, our being born as paradoxes (half-beast and half-angel and half-finite and half-immortal), being born into the world, and our inhabiting this earth is a gift of life and occupancy from them.
Note that the Hebrews are a sacred peole and Canaan is theirs's to live in and enjoy.
