Psalm 132 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Prayer for the LORDS Blessing upon the Sanctuary.

Psa 132:1

A Song of Ascents.

Remember, LORD, in David’s behalf,

All his affliction;

Psa 132:2

How he swore to the LORD

And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

Psa 132:3

“I certainly will not [fn]enter my house,

Nor [fn]lie on my bed;

Psa 132:4

I will not give sleep to my eyes

Or slumber to my eyelids,

Psa 132:5

Until I find a place for the LORD,

[fn]A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

Psa 132:6

Behold, we heard about it in Ephrathah,

We found it in the field of [fn]Jaar.

Psa 132:7

Let’s go into His [fn]dwelling place;

Let’s worship at His footstool.

Psa 132:8

Arise, LORD, to Your resting place,

You and the ark of Your strength.

Psa 132:9

May Your priests be clothed with righteousness,

And may Your godly ones sing for joy.

Psa 132:10

For the sake of Your servant David,

Do not turn away the face of Your anointed.

Psa 132:11

The LORD has sworn to David

A truth from which He will not turn back:

“I will set upon your throne one from the fruit of your body.

Psa 132:12

“If your sons will keep My covenant

And My testimony which I will teach them,

Their sons also will sit upon your throne forever.”

Psa 132:13

For the LORD has chosen Zion;

He has desired it as His dwelling place.

Psa 132:14

“This is My resting place forever;

Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

Psa 132:15

“I will abundantly bless her food;

I will satisfy her needy with bread.

Psa 132:16

“I will also clothe her priests with salvation,

And her godly ones will sing aloud for joy.

Psa 132:17

“I will make the horn of David spring forth there;

I have prepared a lamp for My anointed.

Psa 132:18

“I will clothe his enemies with shame,

But upon himself his crown will gleam.”
