132:1
|
LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:
|
132:2
|
How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
|
132:3
|
Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
|
132:4
|
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
|
132:5
|
Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
|
132:6
|
Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
|
132:7
|
We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
|
132:8
|
Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
|
132:9
|
Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.
|
132:10
|
For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.
|
132:11
|
The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
|
132:12
|
If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
|
132:13
|
For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
|
132:14
|
This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
|
132:15
|
I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
|
132:16
|
I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
|
132:17
|
There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
|
132:18
|
His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
