Chapter 132

1

 Jehovah, remember for David All his affliction; 

 


2

 How he sware unto Jehovah, And vowed unto the Mighty One 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 Jehovah, A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob. 

 


6

 Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah: We found it in the field of the wood. 

 


7

 We will go into his tabernacles; We will worship at his footstool. 

 


8

 Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of thy strength. 

 


9

 Let thy priest 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

 Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth; 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 also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore. 

 


13

 For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation. 

 


14

 This is my resting-place 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

 Her priests also will I clothe 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. Psalm 133 A Song of Ascents; of David.
