Psalms 132:6-18

⁶See, we heard about it in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.

⁷We will go into God's tabernacle; we will worship at his footstool.

⁸Arise, Yahweh, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength!

⁹May your priests be clothed with integrity; may your faithful ones shout for joy.

¹⁰For your servant David's sake, do not turn away from your anointed king.

¹¹Yahweh swore a sure oath to David, a sure oath that he will not revoke: “I will place one of your descendants on your throne.

¹²If your sons keep my covenant and the laws that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forevermore.”

¹³Certainly Yahweh has chosen Zion, he has desired her for his seat.

¹⁴“This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I desire her.

¹⁵I will abundantly bless her with provisions. I will satisfy her poor with bread.

¹⁶I will clothe her priests with salvation, her faithful ones will shout aloud for joy.

¹⁷There I will make a horn to sprout for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one.

¹⁸I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on him his crown will shine.”
