1A Song7892 of degrees4609. LORD3068, remember2142 David1732, and all his afflictions6031:
2How he sware7650 unto the LORD3068, and vowed5087 unto the mighty46 God of Jacob3290;
3Surely I will not come935 into the tabernacle168 of my house1004, nor go up5927 into my bed6210 3326;
4I will not give5414 sleep8153 to mine eyes5869, or slumber8572 to mine eyelids6079,
5Until I find out4672 a place4725 for the LORD3068, an habitation4908 for the mighty46 God of Jacob3290.
6Lo, we heard8085 of it at Ephratah672: we found4672 it in the fields7704 of the wood3293.
7We will go935 into his tabernacles4908: we will worship7812 at his footstool1916 7272.
8Arise6965, O LORD3068, into thy rest4496; thou, and the ark727 of thy strength5797.
9Let thy priests3548 be clothed3847 with righteousness6664; and let thy saints2623 shout for joy7442.
10For thy servant5650 David's1732 sake turn not away7725 the face6440 of thine anointed4899.
11The LORD3068 hath sworn7650 in truth571 unto David1732; he will not turn7725 from it; Of the fruit6529 of thy body990 will I set7896 upon thy throne3678.
12If thy children1121 will keep8104 my covenant1285 and my testimony5713 that2090 2097 I shall teach3925 them, their children1121 shall also sit3427 upon thy throne3678 for evermore5703.
13For the LORD3068 hath chosen977 Zion6726; he hath desired183 it for his habitation4186.
14This is my rest4496 for ever5703: here will I dwell3427; for I have desired183 it.
15I will abundantly1288 bless1288 her provision6718: I will satisfy7646 her poor34 with bread3899.
16I will also clothe3847 her priests3548 with salvation3468: and her saints2623 shall shout aloud7442 for joy7444.
17There will I make6779 the horn7161 of David1732 to bud6779: I have ordained6186 a lamp5216 for mine anointed4899.
18His enemies341 will I clothe3847 with shame1322: but upon himself shall his crown5145 flourish6692.
