132:1  O Lord, remember David, and all his meekness.
132:2  How he swore to the Lord, he vowed a vow to the God of Jacob:
132:3  If I shall enter into the tabernacle of my house: if I shall go up into the bed wherein I lie:
132:4  If I shall give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,
132:5  Or rest to my temples: until I find out a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
132:6  Behold we have heard of it in Ephrata: we have found it in the fields of the wood.
132:7  We will go into his tabernacle: We will adore in the place where his feet stood.
132:8  Arise, O Lord, into thy resting place: thou and the ark, which thou hast sanctified.
132:9  Let thy priests be clothed with justice: and let thy saints rejoice.
132:10  For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thy anointed.
132:11  The Lord hath sworn truth to David, and he will not make it void: of the fruit of thy womb I will set upon thy throne.
132:12  If thy children will keep thy covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them: Their children also for evermore shall sit upon thy throne.
132:13  For the Lord hath chosen Sion: he hath chosen it for his dwelling.
132:14  This is my rest for ever and ever: here will I dwell, for I have chosen it.
132:15  Blessing, I will bless her widow: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
132:16  I will clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall rejoice with exceeding great joy.
132:17  There will I bring forth a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.
132:18  His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him will my sanctification flourish.
