Psalm 132

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 <<A Ma`alot Song.>> LORD, remember David and all his affliction,

2 How he swore to the LORD, And vowed to the Mighty One of Ya`akov:

3 "Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, Nor go up into my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, Or slumber to my eyelids;

5 Until I find out a place for the LORD, A dwelling for the Mighty One of Ya`akov."

6 Behold, we heard of it in Efratah. We found it in the field of Ya`ar:

7 "We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.

8 Arise, LORD, into your resting place; You, and the ark of your strength.

9 Let your Kohen be clothed with righteousness. Let your holy ones shout for joy!"

10 For your servant David's sake, Don't turn away the face of your anointed one.

11 The LORD has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: "I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.

12 If your children will keep my covenant, My testimony that I will teach them, Their children also will sit on your throne forevermore."

13 For the LORD has chosen Tziyon. He has desired it for his habitation.

14 "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.

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

16 Her Kohanim I will also clothe with salvation. Her holy ones will shout aloud for joy.

17 There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.

18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, But on himself, his crown will be resplendant."

The Message Bible MSG

1 O God, remember David, remember all his troubles!

2 And remember how he promised God, made a vow to the Strong God of Jacob,

3 "I'm not going home, and I'm not going to bed,

4 I'm not going to sleep, not even take time to rest,

5 Until I find a home for God, a house for the Strong God of Jacob."

6 Remember how we got the news in Ephrathah, learned all about it at Jaar Meadows?

7 We shouted, "Let's go to the shrine dedication! Let's worship at God's own footstool!"

8 Up, God, enjoy your new place of quiet repose, you and your mighty covenant ark;

9 Get your priests all dressed up in justice; prompt your worshipers to sing this prayer:

10 "Honor your servant David; don't disdain your anointed one."

11 God gave David his word, he won't back out on this promise: "One of your sons I will set on your throne;

12 If your sons stay true to my Covenant and learn to live the way I teach them, Their sons will continue the line - always a son to sit on your throne.

13 Yes - I, God, chose Zion, the place I wanted for my shrine;

14 This will always be my home; this is what I want, and I'm here for good.

15 I'll shower blessings on the pilgrims who come here, and give supper to those who arrive hungry;

16 I'll dress my priests in salvation clothes; the holy people will sing their hearts out!

17 Oh, I'll make the place radiant for David! I'll fill it with light for my anointed!

18 I'll dress his enemies in dirty rags, but I'll make his crown sparkle with splendor."
