1 LORD, remember David and all his self-denial.

1 Lord, do not forget David and all the hardships he endured.

2 He swore an oath to the LORD, he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:

2 Remember, Lord, what he promised, the vow he made to you, the Mighty God of Jacob:

3 “I will not enter my house or go to my bed,

3 "I will not go home or go to bed;

4 I will allow no sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,

4 I will not rest or sleep,

5 till I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

5 until I provide a place for the Lord, a home for the Mighty God of Jacob."

6 We heard it in Ephrathah, we came upon it in the fields of Jaar:

6 In Bethlehem we heard about the Covenant Box, and we found it in the fields of Jearim.

7 “Let us go to his dwelling place, let us worship at his footstool, saying,

7 We said, "Let us go to the Lord's house; let us worship before his throne."

8 ‘Arise, LORD, and come to your resting place, you and the ark of your might.

8 Come to the Temple, Lord, with the Covenant Box, the symbol of your power, and stay here forever.

9 May your priests be clothed with your righteousness; may your faithful people sing for joy.’ ”

9 May your priests do always what is right; may your people shout for joy!

10 For the sake of your servant David, do not reject your anointed one.

10 You made a promise to your servant David; do not reject your chosen king, Lord.

11 The LORD swore an oath to David, a sure oath he will not revoke: “One of your own descendants I will place on your throne.

11 You made a solemn promise to David - a promise you will not take back: "I will make one of your sons king, and he will rule after you.

12 If your sons keep my covenant and the statutes I teach them, then their sons will sit on your throne for ever and ever.”

12 If your sons are true to my covenant and to the commands I give them, their sons, also, will succeed you for all time as kings."

13 For the LORD has chosen Zion, he has desired it for his dwelling, saying,

13 The Lord has chosen Zion; he wants to make it his home:

14 “This is my resting place for ever and ever; here I will sit enthroned, for I have desired it.

14 "This is where I will live forever; this is where I want to rule.

15 I will bless her with abundant provisions; her poor I will satisfy with food.

15 I will richly provide Zion with all she needs; I will satisfy her poor with food.

16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her faithful people will ever sing for joy.

16 I will bless her priests in all they do, and her people will sing and shout for joy.

17 “Here I will make a horn grow for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one.

17 Here I will make one of David's descendants a great king; here I will preserve the rule of my chosen king.

18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but his head will be adorned with a radiant crown.”

18 I will cover his enemies with shame, but his kingdom will prosper and flourish."
