Chapter 132

1


 

  Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,  

 

 

--

2


 

  How he swore to Yahweh, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:  

 

 

--

3


 

  'Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, Nor go up into my bed;  

 

 

--

4


 

  I will not give sleep to my eyes, Or slumber to my eyelids;  

 

 

--

5


 

  Until I find out a place for Yahweh, A dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.'  

 

 

--

6


 

  Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar:  

 

 

--

7


 

  'We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place; You, and the ark of your strength.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!'  

 

 

--

10


 

  For your servant David's sake, Don't turn away the face of your anointed one.  

 

 

--

11


 

  Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: 'I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.  

 

 

--

12


 

  If your children will keep my covenant, My testimony that I will teach them, Their children also will sit on your throne forevermore.'  

 

 

--

13


 

  For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.  

 

 

--

14


 

  'This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.  

 

 

--

15


 

  I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.  

 

 

--

16


 

  Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.  

 

 

--

17


 

  There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.  

 

 

--

18


 

  I will clothe his enemies with shame, But on himself, his crown will be resplendant.' Psalm 133 A Song of Ascents. By David.
