Psalms 132:6-16

⁶We had news of it at Ephrathah: we came to it in the fields of the wood.

⁷Let us go into his tent; let us give worship at his feet.

⁸Come back, O Lord, to your resting-place; you and the ark of your strength.

⁹Let your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let your saints give cries of joy.

¹⁰Because of your servant David, do not give up your king.

¹¹The Lord gave a true oath to David, which he will not take back, saying, I will give your kingdom to the fruit of your body.

¹²If your children keep my word, and the teachings which I will give them, their children will be rulers of your kingdom for ever.

¹³For the Lord's heart is on Zion, desiring it for his resting-place.

¹⁴This is my rest for ever: here will I ever be; for this is my desire.

¹⁵My blessing will be on her food; and her poor will be full of bread.

¹⁶Her priests will be clothed with salvation; and her saints will give cries of joy.
