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.”

Psalm 132 (KJVS)

[1] Lord, remember David, And all his afflictions:
[2] How he sware unto the Lord, And vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
[3] Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, Nor go up into my bed;
[4] I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
[5] Until I find out a place for the Lord, An habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
[6] Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: We found it in the fields of the wood.
[7] We will go into his tabernacles: We will worship at his footstool.
[8] Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
[9] Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; And let thy saints shout for joy.
[10] For thy servant David’s sake Turn not away the face of thine anointed.
[11] The Lord hath sworn in truth unto David; He will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body Will I set upon thy throne.
[12] If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, Their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
[13] For the Lord hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation.
[14] This is my rest for ever: Here will I dwell; 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: And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
[17] There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
[18] His enemies will I clothe with shame: But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
