Psalm 132 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,
[2] how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
[3] “Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;
[4] I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,
[5] until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
[6] Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar.
[7] “We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.”
[8] Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength.
[9] Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!
[10] For your servant David’s sake, don’t turn away the face of your anointed one.
[11] Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
[12] If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.”
[13] For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.
[14] “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I have desired it.
[15] I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
[16] I will also clothe her priests with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.
[17] I will make the horn of David to bud there. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
[18] I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will shine.”

Young’s Literal Translation

Psalm 132 (YLT)

[1] Remember, Jehovah, for David, all his afflictions.
[2] Who hath sworn to Jehovah. He hath vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
[3] ‘If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,
[4] If I give sleep to mine eyes, To mine eyelids-slumber,
[5] Till I do find a place for Jehovah, Tabernacles for the Mighty One of Jacob.
[6] ‘Lo, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the fields of the forest.
[7] We come in to His tabernacles, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
[8] Arise, O Jehovah, to Thy rest, Thou, and the ark of Thy strength,
[9] Thy priests do put on righteousness, And Thy pious ones cry aloud.
[10] For the sake of David Thy servant, Turn not back the face of Thine anointed.
[11] Jehovah hath sworn truth to David, He turneth not back from it: Of the fruit of thy body, I set on the throne for thee.
[12] If thy sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I teach them, Their sons also for ever and ever, Do sit on the throne for thee.
[13] For Jehovah hath fixed on Zion, He hath desired it for a seat to Himself,
[14] This is My rest for ever and ever, Here do I sit, for I have desired it.
[15] Her provision I greatly bless, Her needy ones I satisfy with bread,
[16] And her priests I clothe with salvation, And her pious ones do sing aloud.
[17] There I cause to spring up a horn for David, I have arranged a lamp for Mine anointed.
[18] His enemies I do clothe with shame, And upon him doth his crown flourish!
