Psalms 132

1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:

A song of degrees. Lord, remember Dauid with all his affliction.

2 How he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the mighty God of Jacob;

Who sware vnto the Lord, and vowed vnto the mightie God of Iaakob, saying,

3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

I will not enter into the tabernacle of mine house, nor come vpon my pallet or bed,

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,

Nor suffer mine eyes to sleepe, nor mine eye lids to slumber,

5 Until I find a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

Vntill I finde out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mightie God of Iaakob.

6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah, and found it in the fieldes of the forest.

7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

We will enter into his Tabernacles, and worship before his footestoole.

8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

Arise, O Lord, to come into thy rest, thou, and the Arke of thy strength.

9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

Let thy Priests be clothed with righteousnesse, and let thy Saints reioyce.

10 For thy servant David’s sake turn not away the face of thy anointed.

For thy seruant Dauids sake refuse not the face of thine Anointed.

11 The LORD hath sworn in truth to David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

The Lord hath sworne in trueth vnto Dauid, and he wil not shrinke from it, saying, Of the fruite of thy body will I set vpon thy throne.

12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.

If thy sonnes keepe my couenant, and my testimonies, that I shall teach them, their sonnes also shall sit vpon thy throne for euer.

13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

For the Lord hath chosen Zion, and loued to dwell in it, saying,

14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

This is my rest for euer: here will I dwell, for I haue a delite therein.

15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

I will surely blesse her vitailes, and will satisfie her poore with bread,

16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

And will clothe her Priests with saluation, and her Saints shall shoute for ioye.

17 There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.

There will I make the horne of Dauid to bud: for I haue ordeined a light for mine Anoynted.

18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

His enemies will I clothe with shame, but on him his crowne shall florish.
