Psalms 132

Lord, aremember David, and all his afflictions:
 2 How he sware unto the Lord, and avowed unto the bmighty God of Jacob;
 3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
 4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
 5 Until I find out a place for the Lord, an ahabitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
 6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of athe wood.
 7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
 8 Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
 9 Let thy apriests be clothed with brighteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.
 10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.
 11 The Lord hath sworn in truth unto aDavid; he will not turn from it; Of the bfruit of thy body will I set upon thy cthrone.
 12 If thy achildren will keep my bcovenant and my ctestimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy dthrone for evermore.
 13 For the Lord hath chosen aZion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
 14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
 15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her apoor with bread.
 16 I will also aclothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall bshout aloud for joy.
 17 There will I make the ahorn of bDavid to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
 18 His enemies will I clothe with ashame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
