A Song of Ascents.

1Jehovah, rememberH2142 for DavidH1732All his affliction;2How he sware unto Jehovah,And vowedH5087 unto the MightyH46 OneH46 of JacobH3290:3Surely I will not comeH935 into the tabernacle of my houseH1004,Nor goH935 up into my bedH3326;4I will not giveH5414 sleep to mine eyesH5869,Or slumberH8572 to mine eyelidsH6079;5Until I findH4672 out a placeH4725 for Jehovah,A tabernacleH4908 for the MightyH46 OneH46 of JacobH3290.6Lo, we heardH8085 of it in EphrathahH672:We foundH4672 it in the fieldH7704 of the wood.7We will goH935 into his tabernacles;We will worship at his footstool.8AriseH6965, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;Thou, and the arkH727 of thy strengthH5797.9Let thy priestsH3548 be clothedH3847 with righteousnessH6664;And let thy saints shoutH7442 for joyH7442.10For thy servantH5650 David’s sakeH5668TurnH7725 not awayH7725 the faceH6440 of thine anointedH4899.11Jehovah hath swornH7650 unto DavidH1732 in truthH571;He will not turnH7725 from it:Of the fruitH6529 of thy body will I setH7896 upon thy throneH3678.12If thy children will keepH8104 my covenantH1285And my testimony that I shall teachH3925 them,Their children alsoH1571 shall sitH3427 upon thy throneH3678 for evermore.13For Jehovah hath chosenH977 ZionH6726;He hath desiredH183 it for his habitation.14This is my resting-place for everH5703:HereH6311 will I dwellH3427; for I have desiredH183 it.15I will abundantly blessH1288 her provision:I will satisfyH7646 her poor with breadH3899.16Her priestsH3548 also will I clotheH3847 with salvationH3468;And her saints shall shoutH7442 aloudH7442 for joyH7442.17There will I make the hornH7161 of DavidH1732 to bud:I have ordained a lampH5216 for mine anointedH4899.18His enemiesH341 will I clotheH3847 with shameH1322;But upon himself shall his crownH5145 flourishH6692.
