Psalms 132 — KJVCP

A Song of degrees.

132Verse 1Lord, remember David,
And all his afflictions:
^{Verse 2}How he sware unto the Lord,
And vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
^{Verse 3}Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house,
Nor go up into my bed;
^{Verse 4}I will not give sleep to mine eyes,
Or slumber to mine eyelids,
^{Verse 5}Until I find out a place for the Lord,
A habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
^{Verse 6}Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah:
We found it in the fields of the wood.
^{Verse 7}We will go into his tabernacles:
We will worship at his footstool.
^{Verse 8}Arise, O Lord, into thy rest;
Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
^{Verse 9}Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;
And let thy saints shout for joy.
^{Verse 10}For thy servant David’s sake
Turn not away the face of thine anointed.^{Verse 11}The Lord hath sworn in truth unto David;
He will not turn from it;
Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
^{Verse 12}If thy children will keep my covenant
And my testimony that I shall teach them,
Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.
^{Verse 13}For the Lord hath chosen Zion;
He hath desired it for his habitation.
^{Verse 14}This is my rest for ever:
Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
^{Verse 15}I will abundantly bless her provision:
I will satisfy her poor with bread.
^{Verse 16}I will also clothe her priests with salvation:
And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
^{Verse 17}There will I make the horn of David to bud:
I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
^{Verse 18}His enemies will I clothe with shame:
But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
