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 mine eyes or slumber to mine 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 wood:
132:7  “We will go into His tabernacles; we will worship at His footstool.”
132:8  Arise, O Lord, into Thy rest, Thou and the ark of Thy strength.
132:9  Let Thy priests be clothed with righteousness, and let Thy saints shout for joy.
132:10  For Thy servant David’s sake, turn not away the face of Thine anointed.
132:11  The Lord hath sworn in truth unto David; He will not turn from it: “Of the fruit of thy body I will set upon thy throne.
132:12  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.”
132:13  For the Lord hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for His habitation:
132:14  “This is My rest for ever; 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 Mine anointed.
132:18  His enemies will I clothe with shame, but upon himself shall his crown flourish.”
