Remember, O Yahweh, on David's behalf, All his affliction;

How he swore to Yahweh And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||

"Surely I will not come into my house, Nor lie in the comfort of my bed;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
I will not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|

Until I find a place for Yahweh, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob."

Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah, We found it in the fields of Jaar.

Let us come into His dwelling place; Let us worship at the footstool of His feet.

Arise, O Yahweh, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength.
|

Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your holy ones sing for joy.
|

###### 10

For the sake of David Your servant, Do not turn away the face of Your anointed.

###### 11

Yahweh has sworn to David A truth from which He will not turn back: "Of the fruit of your body I will set upon your throne.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|

If your sons keep My covenant And My testimony which I will teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forever."
|
||
|
|
|

|
###### 13
|
||

For Yahweh has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His habitation.
|
||
|
|
|

"This is My resting place forever; Here I will inhabit, for I have desired it.

I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her needy with bread.
|

Her priests also I will clothe with salvation, And her holy ones will sing loudly for joy.
|
||
|
|

###### 17
|
||
|
|
There I will cause the horn of David to spring up; I have prepared a lamp for Mine anointed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon him, his crown shall blossom."
