Psalm 132 - American Standard Version 20151 {\b A Song of Ascents.}\par\par\tab Jehovah, remember for David\par\tab All his affliction; 2 How he sware unto Jehovah,\par\tab And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob: 3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house,\par\tab Nor go up into my bed; 4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes,\par\tab Or slumber to mine eyelids; 5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah,\par\tab A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob. 6 Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah:\par\tab We found it in the field of the wood. 7 We will go into his tabernacles;\par\tab We will worship at his footstool. 8 Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;\par\tab Thou, and the ark of thy strength. 9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;\par\tab And let thy saints shout for joy. 10 For thy servant David's sake\par\tab Turn not away the face of thine anointed. 11 Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth;\par\tab He will not turn from it:\par\tab Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. 12 If thy children will keep my covenant\par\tab And my testimony that I shall teach them,\par\tab Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore. 13 For Jehovah hath chosen Zion;\par\tab He hath desired it for his habitation. 14 This is my resting-place for ever:\par\tab Here will I dwell; for I have desired it. 15 I will abundantly bless her provision:\par\tab I will satisfy her poor with bread. 16 Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;\par\tab And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. 17 There will I make the horn of David to bud:\par\tab I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed. 18 His enemies will I clothe with shame;\par\tab But upon himself shall his crown flourish. |
