¹ LORD, remember David And all his afflictions; ² How he swore to the LORD, And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: ³ "Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house, Or go up to the comfort of my bed; ⁴ I will not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids, ⁵ Until I find a place for the LORD, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob." ⁶ Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah;We found it in the fields of the woods. [fn] ⁷ Let us go into His tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool. ⁸ Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength. ⁹ Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, And let Your saints shout for joy. ¹⁰ For Your servant David's sake, Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed.

¹¹ The LORD has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it: "I will set upon your throne the fruit of your body. ¹² If your sons will keep My covenant And My testimony which I shall teach them, Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore." ¹³ For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: ¹⁴ "This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it. ¹⁵ I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread. ¹⁶ I will also clothe her priests with salvation, And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. ¹⁷ There I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. ¹⁸ His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish."
