Psalm 132

Revised Version 1895

A Song of Ascents.

1LORDH3068, rememberH2142 for DavidH1732 allH3605 his affliction;
2HowH834 he sware unto the LORDH3068, and vowedH5087 unto the MightyH46 One of JacobH3290:
3SurelyH518 I will notH518 comeH935 intoH935 the tabernacleH168 of my houseH1004, norH518 goH935 upH5927 intoH935 my bedH3326;
4I will notH518 giveH5414 sleep to mine eyesH5869, or slumberH8572 to mine eyelidsH6079;
5UntilH5704 I findH4672 outH4672 a placeH4725 for the LORDH3068, a tabernacleH4908 for the MightyH46 One of JacobH3290.
6LoH2009, weH8085 heardH8085 of it in EphrathahH672: weH8085 foundH4672 it in the fieldH7704 of the wood.
7We will goH935 intoH935 his tabernacles; we will worshipH7812 at his footstool.
8AriseH6965, O LORDH3068, into thy restingH4496 placeH4496; 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’sH1732 sakeH5668 turnH7725 notH408 awayH7725 the faceH6440 of thine anointedH4899.
11The LORDH3068 hath swornH7650 unto DavidH1732 in truthH571; he will notH3808 turnH7725 from it: of the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990 will I setH7896 upon thy throneH3678.
12IfH518 thy childrenH1121 will keepH8104 my covenantH1285 and my testimony that I shall teachH3925 them, their childrenH1121 also shall sitH3427 uponH3427 thy throneH3678 for evermore.
13For the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 ZionH6726; he hath desiredH183 it for his habitationH4186.
14This is my restingH4496 placeH4496 for everH5703: hereH6311 will I dwellH3427; for I have desiredH183 it.
15I will abundantlyH1288 blessH1288 herH1288 provisionH3899: I will satisfyH7646 herH1288 poorH34 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 uponH5921 himself shall his crownH5145 flourishH6692.
