Psalms Chapter[BR] 132

1 A Song of degrees. O Jehovah, remember David and all his afflictions,

2 how he swore to Jehovah; he vowed to the mighty One of Jacob.

3 Surely I will not come into the tent of my house, nor go up into my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, nor slumber to my eyelids,

5 until I find out a place for Jehovah, a dwelling-place for the Mighty One of Jacob.

Psalms Chapter[BR] 132

6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah; we found it in the fields of the wood.

7 We will go into His dwellings; we will worship at His footstool.

8 Arise, O Jehovah, into Your rest; You, and the ark of Your strength.

9 Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy.

10 For Your servant David's sake, turn not away the face of Your anointed.

Psalms Chapter[BR] 132

11 Jehovah has sworn to David in truth; He will not turn from it; Of the fruit of your body I will set on the throne for you.

12 If your sons will keep My covenant and My testimonies which I shall teach them, their sons shall also sit on your throne forever.

13 Jehovah has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling-place.

Psalms Chapter[BR] 132

14 This is My rest forever; here I will dwell; for I have desired it.

15 I will greatly bless her food; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16 I also will clothe her priests with salvation; and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

17 There I will make the horn of David to bud; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed.

Psalms Chapter[BR] 132

18 I will clothe his enemies with shame; but his crown shall shine on him.
