Listen to Psalm 132

¹Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction, ²how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: ³"Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed; ⁴I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids, ⁵until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob." ⁶Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar. ⁷"We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool." ⁸Arise, Yahweh, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength. ⁹Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy! ¹⁰For your servant David's sake, don't turn away the face of your anointed one. ¹¹Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: "I will set the fruit of your body on your throne. ¹²If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more." ¹³For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation. ¹⁴"This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I have desired it. ¹⁵I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread. ¹⁶I will also clothe her priests with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy. ¹⁷I will make the horn of David to bud there. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed. ¹⁸I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will shine."
