Psalms 132:10-18
Psalms 132:8-18 The Message (MSG)
Up, GOD, enjoy your new place of quiet repose, you and your mighty covenant ark; Get your priests all dressed up in justice; prompt your worshipers to sing this prayer: “Honor your servant David; don’t disdain your anointed one.” GOD gave David his word, he won’t back out on this promise: “One of your sons I will set on your throne; If your sons stay true to my Covenant and learn to live the way I teach them, Their sons will continue the line— always a son to sit on your throne. Yes—I, GOD, chose Zion, the place I wanted for my shrine; This will always be my home; this is what I want, and I’m here for good. I’ll shower blessings on the pilgrims who come here, and give supper to those who arrive hungry; I’ll dress my priests in salvation clothes; the holy people will sing their hearts out! Oh, I’ll make the place radiant for David! I’ll fill it with light for my anointed! I’ll dress his enemies in dirty rags, but I’ll make his crown sparkle with splendor.”
Psalms 132:10-18 King James Version (KJV)
For thy servant David's sake Turn not away the face of thine anointed. 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. 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. For the LORD hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation. This is my rest for ever: Here will I dwell; for I have desired it. I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread. I will also clothe her priests with salvation: And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed. His enemies will I clothe with shame: But upon himself shall his crown flourish.

If your sons keep my agreement and the rules that I teach them, then their sons after them will rule on your throne forever and ever.” The LORD has chosen Jerusalem; he wants it for his home. He says, “This is my resting place forever. Here is where I want to stay. I will bless her with plenty; I will fill her poor with food. I will cover her priests with salvation, and those who worship me will really sing for joy. “I will make a king come from the family of David.

Don’t forsake your anointed king now, but honor your servant David. For you gave your word and promised David in an unbreakable oath that one of his sons would be sitting on the throne to succeed him as king. You also promised that if David’s sons would be faithful to keep their promise to follow you, obeying the words you spoke to them, then David’s dynasty would never end. Lord, you have chosen Zion as your dwelling place, for your pleasure is fulfilled in making it your home. I hear you say, “I will make this place my eternal dwelling, for I have loved and desired it as my very own! I will make Zion prosper and satisfy her poor with my provision. I will cover my priests with salvation’s power, and all my righteous ones will shout for joy! I will increase the anointing that was upon David, and my glistening glory will rest upon my anointed one. I will clothe his enemies with shame, but holiness will bloom on my anointed one.”
