PSALM 132
A Messianic PsalmOf the fruit of Davids loins will the Lord set One upon his throneThe Lord will bless Zion, and her saints shall shout for joy.
A Song of degrees.
LORD, aremember David, and all his afflictions:

How he sware unto the LORD, and avowed unto the bmighty God of Jacob;

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

I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

Until I find out a place for the LORD, an ahabitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

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

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

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

Let thy apriests be clothed with brighteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

For thy servant Davids sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

The LORD hath sworn in truth unto aDavid; he will not turn from it; Of the bfruit of thy body will I set upon thy cthrone.

If thy achildren will keep my bcovenant and my ctestimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy dthrone for evermore.

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

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

I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her apoor with bread.

I will also aclothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall bshout aloud for joy.

There will I make the ahorn of bDavid to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

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