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.”

[1] [131:1] ωδη των αναβαθμων μνησθητι κυριε του δαυιδ και πασης της πραυτητος αυτου
[2] [131:2] ως ωμοσεν τω κυριω ηυξατο τω θεω ιακωβ
[3] [131:3] ει εισελευσομαι εις σκηνωμα οικου μου ει αναβησομαι επι κλινης στρωμνης μου
[4] [131:4] ει δωσω υπνον τοις οφθαλμοις μου και τοις βλεφαροις μου νυσταγμον και αναπαυσιν τοις κροταφοις μου
[5] [131:5] εως ου ευρω τοπον τω κυριω σκηνωμα τω θεω ιακωβ
[6] [131:6] ιδου ηκουσαμεν αυτην εν εφραθα ευρομεν αυτην εν τοις πεδιοις του δρυμου
[7] [131:7] εισελευσομεθα εις τα σκηνωματα αυτου προσκυνησομεν εις τον τοπον ου εστησαν οι ποδες αυτου
[8] [131:8] αναστηθι κυριε εις την αναπαυσιν σου συ και η κιβωτος του αγιασματος σου
[9] [131:9] οι ιερεις σου ενδυσονται δικαιοσυνην και οι οσιοι σου αγαλλιασονται
[10] [131:10] ενεκεν δαυιδ του δουλου σου μη αποστρεψης το προσωπον του χριστου σου
[11] [131:11] ωμοσεν κυριος τω δαυιδ αληθειαν και ου μη αθετησει αυτην εκ καρπου της κοιλιας σου θησομαι επι τον θρονον σου
[12] [131:12] εαν φυλαξωνται οι υιοι σου την διαθηκην μου και τα μαρτυρια μου ταυτα α διδαξω αυτους και οι υιοι αυτων εως του αιωνος καθιουνται επι του θρονου σου
[13] [131:13] οτι εξελεξατο κυριος την σιων ηρετισατο αυτην εις κατοικιαν εαυτω
[14] [131:14] αυτη η καταπαυσις μου εις αιωνα αιωνος ωδε κατοικησω οτι ηρετισαμην αυτην
[15] [131:15] την θηραν αυτης ευλογων ευλογησω τους πτωχους αυτης χορτασω αρτων
[16] [131:16] τους ιερεις αυτης ενδυσω σωτηριαν και οι οσιοι αυτης αγαλλιασει αγαλλιασονται
[17] [131:17] εκει εξανατελω κερας τω δαυιδ ητοιμασα λυχνον τω χριστω μου
[18] [131:18] τους εχθρους αυτου ενδυσω αισχυνην επι δε αυτον εξανθησει το αγιασμα μου
