Psalms 132

Promise of Ben-David
1A Song of Ascents. Adonai, remember David, all his afflictions,
2and how he swore to Adonai, vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3“I will not enter the tent of my house nor lie on my bed,
4nor will I will give sleep to my eyes, nor slumber to my eyelids,
5till I find a place for Adonai, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6Behold, we heard of it in Ephratha, we found it in the fields of Joar.
7Let us go into His dwelling place, let us bow at His footstool.
8Arise, Adonai, to Your resting place— You, and the Ark of Your might.
9Let Your kohanim wear righteousness, and let Your godly ones sing for joy.
10For Your servant David’s sake do not turn away the face of Your anointed.
11Adonai has sworn to David a true promise He will not revoke: “From the fruit of your body I will set one upon your throne—
12if your children keep My covenant and My law that I will teach them, then their sons will sit on your throne forever.”
13For Adonai has chosen Zion, He has desired it for His dwelling:
14“This is My resting place forever. Here I dwell, for I have desired it.
15I will abundantly bless her food. I will satisfy her needy ones with bread.
16I will clothe her kohanim with salvation, and her godly ones will sing aloud for joy.
17There will I make a horn spring up for David, I have set up a lamp for My anointed.
18His enemies I will clothe with shame, but upon himself his crown will shine.”

132
The Eternal Dwelling of God in Zion
A Song of Ascents.
1Lord, remember David
And all his afflictions;
2How he swore to the Lord,
#(Ps. 130:7)And vowed to #Ps. 65:1the 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 #Gen. 49:24; Is. 49:26; 60:16not give sleep to my eyes
Or slumber to my eyelids,
5Until I #Prov. 6:4find a place for the Lord,
A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6Behold, we heard of it #1 Kin. 8:17; 1 Chr. 22:7; Ps. 26:8; Acts 7:46in Ephrathah;
#1 Sam. 17:12We found it #1 Sam. 7:1in the fields of the woods.
7Let us go into His tabernacle;
#1 Chr. 13:5Let us worship at His footstool.
8#Ps. 5:7; 99:5Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place,
You and #Num. 10:35the ark of Your strength.
9Let Your priests #Ps. 78:61be 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.
11#Job 29:14The Lord has sworn in truth to David;
He will not turn from it:
“I will set upon your throne #(Ps. 89:3, 4, 33; 110:4)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.”
13#2 Sam. 7:12; (1 Kin. 8:25; 2 Chr. 6:16; Luke 1:69; Acts 2:30)For the Lord has chosen Zion;
He has desired it for His dwelling place:
14“This#(Ps. 48:1, 2) is My resting place forever;
Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.
15#Ps. 68:16; Matt. 23:21I will abundantly bless her provision;
I will satisfy her poor with bread.
16#Ps. 147:14I will also clothe her priests with salvation,
#2 Chr. 6:41; Ps. 132:9; 149:4And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
17#1 Sam. 4:5; Hos. 11:12There I will make the horn of David grow;
#Ezek. 29:21; Luke 1:69I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed.
18His enemies I will #1 Kin. 11:36; 15:4; 2 Kin. 8:19; 2 Chr. 21:7; Ps. 18:28clothe with shame,
But upon Himself His crown shall flourish.”
