A SONG OF ASCENTS.Remember, O LORD, in David's favor, all the hardships he endured, |
2
|
how he swore to the LORD and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob, |
3
|
"I will not enter my house or get into my bed, |
4
|
I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids, |
5
|
until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob." |
6
|
Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar. |
7
|
"Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool!" |
8
|
Arise, O LORD, and go to your resting place, you and the ark of your might. |
9
|
Let your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let your saints shout for joy. |
10
|
For the sake of your servant David, do not turn away the face of your anointed one. |
11
|
The LORD swore to David a sure oath from which he will not turn back: "One of the sons of your body I will set on your throne. |
12
|
If your sons keep my covenant and my testimonies that I shall teach them, their sons also forever shall sit on your throne." |
13
|
For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling place: |
14
|
"This is my resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I have desired it. |
15
|
I will abundantly bless her provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread. |
16
|
Her priests I will clothe with salvation, and her saints will shout for joy. |
17
|
There I will make a horn to sprout for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed. |
18
|
His enemies I will clothe with shame, but on him his crown will shine." |
