Psalms 132
1O LORD, remember David, and all his meek humility;
2how he swore to the Lord, and made his vow to the God of Jacob:
3I will not enter the lodging of my house, nor go up to my bed of rest;
4nor give sleep to mine eyes or slumber to mine eyelids; nor rest to my temples;
5until I find a place for the Lord—a habitation for the God of Jacob.
6Behold we had heard of this [ark] at Ephrata; we found it in the fields of the forest.
7Let us go to his habitations; let us worship at the place where his feet stood.
8Arise, O Lord, and go up to Thy rest, Thou and the ark of Thy holiness.
9Let Thy priests be clothed with righteousness, and Thy saints shout for joy.
10For the sake of Thy servant David, turn not away the face of Thine anointed.
11The Lord hath sworn a truth to David, and will not annul it; of the fruit of thy body I will set on thy throne;
12if thy children keep My covenant, and these My testimonies, which I will teach them, their children also shall sit on thy throne forever.
13For the Lord hath chosen Sion, and made choice of it for His habitation.
14This shall be My rest forever. Here I will dwell, for I have chosen it.
15With blessings I will bless her provision; and satisfy her poor with bread.
16Her priests I will clothe with salvation; and her saints shall shout for joy.
17I will cause a horn for David to spring up there; I have prepared a lamp for Mine anointed.
18His enemies I will clothe with shame; but on him My crown shall flourish.
