Prayer for the LORD'S Blessing upon the Sanctuary.

A Song of Ascents.

1 Remember, O LORD, on David's behalf, All ¹his affliction ; 2 How he swore to the LORD And vowed to ²the Mighty One of Jacob, 3 "Surely I will not ^aenter ³my house, Nor ^blie on my bed ; 4 I will not ⁴give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids, 5 Until I find a ⁵place for the LORD, ^cA dwelling place for ⁶the Mighty One of Jacob." 6 Behold, we heard of it in ⁷Ephrathah, We found it in the ⁸field of ^dJaar. 7 Let us go into His ^e⁹dwelling place ; Let us ¹⁰worship at His ¹¹footstool . 8 ¹²Arise, O LORD, to Your ¹³resting place, You and the ark of Your ¹⁴strength. 9 Let Your priests be ¹⁵clothed with righteousness, And let Your ¹⁶godly ones sing for joy. 10 For the sake of David Your servant, Do not turn away the face of Your ¹⁷anointed. 11 The LORD has ¹⁸sworn to David A truth from which He will not turn back : "¹⁹Of the fruit of your body I will set upon your throne. 12 "If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I will teach them, Their sons also shall ²⁰sit upon your throne forever." 13 For the LORD has ²¹chosen Zion ; He has ²²desired it for His habitation. 14 "This is My ²³resting place forever ; Here I will ²⁴dwell, for I have desired it. 15 "I will abundantly ²⁵bless her provision ; I will ²⁶satisfy her needy with bread. 16 "Her ²⁷priests also I will clothe with salvation, And her ²⁸godly ones will sing aloud for joy. 17 "There I will cause the ²⁹horn of David to spring forth ; I have prepared a ³⁰lamp for Mine anointed. 18 "His enemies I will ³¹clothe with shame, But upon himself his ³²crown shall shine."
