Chapter 132
|
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. |
