Psalm 132

New Living Translation NLT

1 LORD, remember David and all that he suffered.

2 He made a solemn promise to the LORD . He vowed to the Mighty One of Israel,

3 “I will not go home; I will not let myself rest.

4 I will not let my eyes sleep nor close my eyelids in slumber

5 until I find a place to build a house for the LORD, a sanctuary for the Mighty One of Israel.”

6 We heard that the Ark was in Ephrathah; then we found it in the distant countryside of Jaar.

7 Let us go to the sanctuary of the LORD ; let us worship at the footstool of his throne.

8 Arise, O LORD, and enter your resting place, along with the Ark, the symbol of your power.

9 May your priests be clothed in godliness; may your loyal servants sing for joy.

10 For the sake of your servant David, do not reject the king you have anointed.

11 The LORD swore an oath to David with a promise he will never take back: “I will place one of your descendants on your throne.

12 If your descendants obey the terms of my covenant and the laws that I teach them, then your royal line will continue forever and ever.”

13 For the LORD has chosen Jerusalem ; he has desired it for his home.

14 “This is my resting place forever,” he said. “I will live here, for this is the home I desired.

15 I will bless this city and make it prosperous; I will satisfy its poor with food.

16 I will clothe its priests with godliness; its faithful servants will sing for joy.

17 Here I will increase the power of David; my anointed one will be a light for my people.

18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but he will be a glorious king.”

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 A song of ascents: ADONAI, remember in David's favor all the hardships he endured,

2 how he swore to ADONAI, vowed to the Mighty One of Ya'akov,

3 "I will not enter the house where I live or get into my bed,

4 I will not allow myself to sleep or even close my eyes,

5 until I find a place for ADONAI, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Ya'akov."

6 We heard about it in Efrat, we found it in the Fields of Ya'ar.

7 Let's go into his dwelling and prostrate ourselves at his footstool.

8 Go up, ADONAI, to your resting-place, you and the ark through which you give strength.

9 May your cohanim be clothed with righteousness; may those loyal to you shout for joy.

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

11 ADONAI swore an oath to David, an oath he will not break: "One of the sons from your own body I will set on your throne.

12 If your sons keep my covenant and my instruction, which I will teach them, then their descendants too, forever, will sit on your throne."

13 For ADONAI has chosen Tziyon, he has wanted it as his home.

14 "This is my resting-place forever, I will live here because I so much want to.

15 I will bless it with plenty of meat, I will give its poor their fill of food.

16 Its cohanim I will clothe with salvation, and its faithful will shout for joy.

17 I will make a king sprout there from David's line and prepare a lamp for my anointed one.

18 His enemies I will clothe with shame, but on him there will be a shining crown."
