Psalms
Chapter 132
1 Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions: A Song of degrees.
2 How he sware unto the Lord, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob; A Song of degrees.
3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed; A Song of degrees.
4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids, A Song of degrees.
5 Until I find out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob. A Song of degrees.
6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood. A Song of degrees.
7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool. A Song of degrees.
8 Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength. A Song of degrees.
9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy. A Song of degrees.
10 For thy servant David’s sake turn not away the face of thine anointed. A Song of degrees.
11 The Lord hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. A Song of degrees.
12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore. A Song of degrees.
13 For the Lord hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation. A Song of degrees.
14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it. A Song of degrees.
15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread. A Song of degrees.
16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy. A Song of degrees.
17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed. A Song of degrees.
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
