Psalms 132

¹ Remember, O Yahweh, concerning David, All his humiliation, ² How he swore to Yahweh And vowed to the Sturdy One of Jacob: ³ I shall assuredly not come into my tent house, Assuredly not go up to the cot of my berth, ⁴ Assuredly not give sleep to my eyes, Or slumber to my eyelids, ⁵ Until I should find a place for Yahweh, A Grand Tabernacle for the Sturdy One of Jacob. ⁶ Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; We found it in the fields of Jaar. ⁷ Let us go to His Grand Tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool. ⁸ Do arise, O Yahweh, to Your resting place, You and the coffer of Your strength. ⁹ Your priests, may they be clothed with righteousness, And Your benign ones, may they be jubilant. ¹⁰ For the sake of David, Your servant, O do not turn back from the face of Your anointed one. ¹¹ Yahweh has sworn to David the truth; He shall not turn back from it: Out of the fruit of your loin Shall I set One on your throne. ¹² If your sons should keep My covenant And My testimonies that I shall teach them, Their sons also unto the future, They shall sit on your throne. ¹³ For Yahweh has chosen Zion; He yearns for it as His dwelling place: ¹⁴ This is My resting place unto the future; Here shall I dwell, for I yearn for it. ¹⁵ Its provision shall I bless, yea bless; Its needy ones shall I satisfy with bread; ¹⁶ Its priests shall I clothe with salvation, And its benign ones, they shall be jubilant, yea jubilant; ¹⁷ There shall I make the horn of David sprout; I will arrange a lamp for My anointed one. ¹⁸ His enemies shall I clothe with shame, Yet his insignia shall blossom upon him.
