Psalms 132

1- A Song of the going up. - Lord, give thought to David, and to all his troubles;● 2How he made an oath to the Lord, and gave his word to the great God of Jacob, saying,● 3Truly, I will not come into my house, or go to my bed,● 4I will not give sleep to my eyes, or rest to my eyeballs,● 5Till I have got a place for the Lord, a resting-place for the great God of Jacob.● 6We had news of it at Ephrathah: we came to it in the fields of the wood.● 7Let us go into his tent; let us give worship at his feet.● 8Come back, O Lord, to your resting-place; you and the ark of your strength.● 9Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let your saints give cries of joy.● 10Because of your servant David, do not give up your king.● 11The Lord gave a true oath to David, which he will not take back, saying, I will give your kingdom to the fruit of your body.● 12If your children keep my word, and the teachings which I will give them, their children will be rulers of your kingdom for ever.● 13For the Lord's heart is on Zion, desiring it for his resting-place.● 14This is my rest for ever: here will I ever be; for this is my desire.● 15My blessing will be on her food; and her poor will be full of bread.● 16Her priests will be clothed with salvation; and her saints will give cries of joy.● 17There I will make the horn of David fertile: I have made ready a light for my king.● 18His haters will be clothed with shame; but I will make his crown shining.●
