Psalm 132

132:1 [A Song of Ascents.] Remember, O LORD, in David's favor, all the hardships he endured, 132:2 how he swore to the LORD and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob, 132:3 "I will not enter my house or get into my bed, 132:4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids, 132:5 until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob." 132:6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar. 132:7 "Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool!" 132:8 Arise, O LORD, and go to your resting place, you and the ark of your might. 132:9 Let your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let your saints shout for joy. 132:10 For the sake of your servant David, do not turn away the face of your anointed one. 132:11 The LORD swore to David a sure oath from which he will not turn back: "One of the sons of your body I will set on your throne. 132:12 If your sons keep my covenant and my testimonies that I shall teach them, their sons also forever shall sit on your throne." 132:13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling place: 132:14 "This is my resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I have desired it. 132:15 I will abundantly bless her provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread. 132:16 Her priests I will clothe with salvation, and her saints will shout for joy. 132:17 There I will make a horn to sprout for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed. 132:18 His enemies I will clothe with shame, but on him his crown will shine."
