Psalm 132David and Zion Chosen
|
|
|
|
1. Lord, remember David
|
|
and all the hardships he endured,
|
|
|
|
2. and how he swore an oath to the Lord,
|
|
making a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:
|
|
|
|
3. "I will not enter my house
|
|
or get into my bed,
|
|
|
|
4. I will not allow my eyes to sleep
|
|
or my eyelids to slumber
|
|
|
|
5. until I find a place for the Lord,
|
|
a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob."
|
|
|
|
6. We heard of the ark in Ephrathah;
|
|
we found it in the fields of Jaar.
|
|
|
|
7. Let's go to his dwelling place;
|
|
let's worship at his footstool.
|
|
|
|
8. Rise up, Lord, come to your resting place,
|
|
you and your powerful ark.
|
|
|
|
9. May your priests be clothed with righteousness,
|
|
and may your faithful people shout for joy.
|
|
|
|
10. For the sake of your servant David,
|
|
do not reject your anointed one.
|
|
|
|
11. The Lord swore an oath to David,
|
|
a promise he will not abandon:
|
|
"I will set one of your offspring
|
|
on your throne.
|
|
|
|
|
|
12. If your sons keep my covenant
|
|
and my decrees that I will teach them,
|
|
their sons will also sit on your throne forever."
|
|
|
|
13. For the Lord has chosen Zion;
|
|
he has desired it for his home:
|
|
|
|
14. "This is my resting place forever;
|
|
I will make my home here
|
|
because I have desired it.
|
|
|
|
15. I will abundantly bless its food;
|
|
I will satisfy its needy with bread.
|
|
|
|
16. I will clothe its priests with salvation,
|
|
and its faithful people will shout for joy.
|
|
|
|
17. There I will make a horn grow for David;
|
|
I have prepared a lamp for my anointed one.
|
|
|
|
18. I will clothe his enemies with shame,
|
|
but the crown he wears will be glorious."
