Psalms 132
1. A Song of degrees. LORD, remember * David, and all his afflictions * :
2. How he sware * unto the LORD, and vowed * unto the mighty God of Jacob;
3. Surely I will not come * into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up * into my bed;
4. I will not give * sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
5. Until I find out * a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
6. Lo, we heard * of it at Ephratah: we found * it in the fields of the wood.
7. We will go * into his tabernacles: we will worship * at his footstool.
8. Arise * , O LORD, into thy rest;thou, and the ark of thy strength.
9. Let thy priests be clothed * with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy * .
10. For thy servant David's sake turn not away * the face of thine anointed.
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.
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.
13. For the LORD hath chosen * Zion;he hath desired * it for his habitation.
14. This is my rest for ever: here will I 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 will I make * the horn of David to bud * : I have ordained * a lamp for mine anointed.
18. His enemies * will I clothe * with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish * .
