Psalms 132

The Eternal Dwelling of God in Zion

¹Lord, remember David And all his afflictions;

²How he swore to the Lord, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

³“Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house, Or go up to the comfort of my bed;

⁴I will not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids,

⁵Until I find a place for the Lord, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

⁶Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; We found it in the fields of the woods.

⁷Let us go into His tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool.

⁸Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength.

⁹Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your saints shout for joy.

¹⁰For Your servant David’s sake, Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed.

¹¹The Lord has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it: “I will set upon your throne the fruit of your body.

¹²If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore.”

¹³For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place:

¹⁴“Thisis My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

¹⁵I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

¹⁶I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

¹⁷There I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed.

¹⁸His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish.”
