Psalm 132
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. LORD, remember David
|
|
|
|
and all that he suffered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. He made a solemn promise to the LORD.
|
|
He vowed to the Mighty One of Israel,
|
|
|
|
3. "I will not go home;
|
|
|
|
I will not let myself rest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. I will not let my eyes sleep
|
|
|
|
nor close my eyelids in slumber
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. until I find a place to build a house for the LORD,
|
|
|
|
a sanctuary for the Mighty One of Israel."
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. We heard that the Ark was in Ephrathah;
|
|
|
|
then we found it in the distant countryside of Jaar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Let us go to the sanctuary of the LORD;
|
|
|
|
let us worship at the footstool of his throne.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. Arise, O LORD, and enter your resting place,
|
|
|
|
along with the Ark, the symbol of your power.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. May your priests be clothed in godliness;
|
|
|
|
may your loyal servants sing for joy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. For the sake of your servant David,
|
|
|
|
do not reject the king you have anointed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. The LORD swore an oath to David
|
|
|
|
with a promise he will never take back:
|
|
"I will place one of your descendants
|
|
|
|
on your throne.
|
|
|
|
|
|
12. If your descendants obey the terms of my covenant
|
|
|
|
and the laws that I teach them,
|
|
then your royal line
|
|
|
|
will continue forever and ever."
|
|
|
|
|
|
13. For the LORD has chosen Jerusalem;
|
|
|
|
he has desired it for his home.
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. "This is my resting place forever," he said.
|
|
|
|
"I will live here, for this is the home I desired.
|
|
|
|
|
|
15. I will bless this city and make it prosperous;
|
|
|
|
I will satisfy its poor with food.
|
|
|
|
|
|
16. I will clothe its priests with godliness;
|
|
|
|
its faithful servants will sing for joy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
17. Here I will increase the power of David;
|
|
|
|
my anointed one will be a light for my people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
18. I will clothe his enemies with shame,
|
|
|
|
but he will be a glorious king."
