132:1  LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:
132:2  How he swore unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
132:3  Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
132:4  I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,
132:5  Until I find out a place for the LORD, a habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
132:6  Lo, we heard of it at Ephrathah: we found it in the fields of the woods.
132:7  We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
132:8  Arise, O LORD, into your rest; you, and the ark of your strength.
132:9  Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let your saints shout for joy.
132:10  For your servant David's sake turn not away the face of your anointed.
132:11  The LORD has sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of your body will I set upon your throne.
132:12  If your children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon your throne forevermore.
132:13  For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his habitation.
132:14  This is my rest forever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
132:15  I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
132:16  I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
132:17  There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
132:18  His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
