Psalms 132 : 1 - 18
Chapter 132
| 1 | LORD, remember David And all his afflictions;
|
| 2 | How he swore to the LORD, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
|
| 3 | "Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house, Or go up to the comfort of my bed;
|
| 4 | I will not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids,
|
| 5 | Until I find a place for the LORD, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob."
|
| 6 | Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; We found it in the fields of the woods.
|
| 7 | Let us go into His tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool.
|
| 8 | Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength.
|
| 9 | Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your saints shout for joy.
|
| 10 | For Your servant David's sake, Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed.
|
| 11 | The LORD has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it: "I will set upon your throne the fruit of your body.
|
| 12 | If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore."
|
| 13 | For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place:
|
| 14 | "This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.
|
| 15 | I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread.
|
| 16 | I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
|
| 17 | There I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed.
|
| 18 | His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish."
