2How he sware to Jehovah, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3“I will not go into my house, Nor lie down on my bed,
4I will not give sleep to my eyes, Nor slumber to my eyelids,
5Until I find a place for Jehovah, A habitation for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah; We found it in the fields of the forest.
7Let us go into his habitation; Let us worship at his footstool!
8Arise, O LORD! into thy rest, Thou, and the ark of thy strength!
9Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, And thy holy ones shout for joy!
10For the sake of thy servant David, Reject not the prayer of thine anointed!
11Jehovah hath sworn in truth unto David, And he will not depart from it: “Of the fruit of thy body will I place upon the throne for thee.
12If thy children keep my covenant, And my statutes, which I teach them, Their children also throughout all ages Shall sit upon thy throne.”
13For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it as his dwelling-place.
14“This is my resting-place for ever; Here will I dwell, for I have chosen it.
15I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread.
16I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her holy ones shall shout aloud for joy.
17There will I cause to spring forth a horn for David; I have prepared a light for mine anointed.
18His enemies will I clothe with shame, And the crown shall glitter upon his head.”
