Psalms, 132

The New American Bible

1 LORD, remember David and all his anxious care;

2 How he swore an oath to the LORD, vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 "I will not enter the house where I live, nor lie on the couch where I sleep;

4 I will give my eyes no sleep, my eyelids no rest,

5 Till I find a home for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob."

6 "We have heard of it in Ephrathah; we have found it in the fields of Jaar.

7 Let us enter God's dwelling; let us worship at God's footstool."

8 "Arise, LORD, come to your resting place, you and your majestic ark.

9 Your priests will be clothed with justice; your faithful will shout for joy."

10 For the sake of David your servant, do not reject your anointed.

11 The LORD swore an oath to David, a pledge never to be broken: "Your own offspring I will set upon your throne.

12 If your sons observe my covenant, the laws I shall teach them, Their sons, in turn, shall sit forever on your throne."

13 Yes, the LORD has chosen Zion, desired it for a dwelling:

14 "This is my resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I desire it.

15 I will bless Zion with meat; its poor I will fill with bread.

16 I will clothe its priests with blessing; its faithful shall shout for joy.

17 There I will make a horn sprout for David's line; I will set a lamp for my anointed.

18 His foes I will clothe with shame, but on him my crown shall gleam."
