| Chapter 132 | |
| 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 atabernacles: 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 1habitation.
 | 
| 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. |
