Psalm
132

A Song of degrees.

1
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.
