Psalms 132
1 A Song of Ascents. LORD, remember David and all his affliction,
Canticum graduum. Memento Domine David, et omnis mansuetudinis eius:
2 how he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
Sicut iuravit Domino, votum vovit Deo Iacob:
3 “Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;
Si introiero in tabernaculum domus meæ, si ascendero in lectum strati mei:
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,
Si dedero somnum oculis meis, et palpebris meis dormitationem:
5 until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
Et requiem temporibus meis: donec inveniam locum Domino, tabernaculum Deo Iacob.
6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar.
Ecce audivimus eam in Ephrata: invenimus eam in campis silvæ.
7 “We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.”
Introibimus in tabernaculum eius: adorabimus in loco, ubi steterunt pedes eius.
8 Arise, LORD, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength.
Surge Domine in requiem tuam, tu et arca sanctificationis tuæ.
9 Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!
Sacerdotes tui induantur iustitiam: et sancti tui exultent.
10 For your servant David’s sake, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.
Propter David servum tuum, non avertas faciem Christi tui.
11 The LORD has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
Iuravit Dominus David veritatem, et non frustrabitur eam: de fructu ventris tui ponam super sedem tuam.
12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.”
Si custodierint filii tui testamentum meum, et testimonia mea hæc, quæ docebo eos: Et filii eorum usque in sæculum, sedebunt super sedem tuam.
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.
Quoniam elegit Dominus Sion: elegit eam in habitationem sibi.
14 “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I have desired it.
Hæc requies mea in sæculum sæculi: hic habitabo quoniam elegi eam.
15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Viduam eius benedicens benedicam: pauperes eius saturabo panibus.
16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.
Sacerdotes eius induam salutari: et sancti eius exultatione exultabunt.
17 I will make the horn of David to bud there. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
Illuc producam cornu David, paravi lucernam Christo meo.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will shine.”
Inimicos eius induam confusione: super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea.
