Psalms 132:2-11

2how he swore to the Lord and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

3"I will not enter my house or get into my bed,

4I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,

5until I find a place for the Lord, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob."

6Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.

7"Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool!"

8Arise, O Lord, and go to your resting place, you and the ark of your might.

9Let your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let your saints shout for joy.

10For the sake of your servant David, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

11The Lord swore to David a sure oath from which he will not turn back: "One of the sons of your body I will set on your throne.
