AB - Psalms - 132

132:1  A Song of Degrees. Lord, remember David, and all his meekness:

132:2  how he swore to the Lord, and vowed to the God of Jacob, saying,

132:3  I will not go into the tabernacle of my house; I will not go up to the couch of my bed;

132:4  I will not give sleep to my eyes, nor slumber to my eyelids, nor rest to my temples,

132:5  until I find a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.

132:6  Behold, we heard of it in Ephratha; we found it in the fields of the wood.

132:7  Let us enter into His tabernacles: let us worship at His footstool.

132:8  Arise, O Lord, into Your rest; You, and the ark of Your holiness.

132:9  Your priests shall clothe themselves with righteousness; and Your saints shall rejoice.

132:10  For the sake of Your servant David turn not away the face of Your Anointed.

132:11  The Lord has sworn in truth to David, and He will not annul it, saying, Of the fruit of your body will I set a king upon your throne.

132:12  If your children will keep My covenant, and these My testimonies which I shall teach them, their children also shall sit upon your throne forever.

132:13  For the Lord has elected Zion, He has chosen her for a habitation for Himself, saying,

132:14  This is My rest forever: here will I dwell; for I have chosen it.

132:15  I will surely bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

132:16  I will clothe her priests with salvation; and her saints shall greatly rejoice.

132:17  There will I cause to spring up a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for My Anointed.

132:18  His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon Himself shall My holiness flourish.
