Psalm 132 New King James Version (NKJV)

The Eternal Dwelling of God in Zion

A Song of Ascents.

132 Lord, remember David
And all his afflictions;
²How he swore to the Lord,
^(A)And vowed to ^(B)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;
⁴I will ^(C)not give sleep to my eyes
Or slumber to my eyelids,
⁵Until I ^(D)find a place for the Lord,
A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

⁶Behold, we heard of it ^(E)in Ephrathah;
^(F)We found it ^(G)in the fields of ^[a]the woods.
⁷Let us go into His tabernacle;
^(H)Let us worship at His footstool.
⁸^(I)Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place,
You and ^(J)the ark of Your strength.
⁹Let Your priests ^(K)be clothed with righteousness,
And let Your saints shout for joy.

¹⁰For Your servant David’s sake,
Do not turn away the face of Your ^[b]Anointed.

¹¹^(L)The Lord has sworn in truth to David;
He will not turn from it:
“I will set upon your throne ^(M)the ^[c]fruit of your body.
¹²If your sons will keep My covenant
And My testimony which I shall teach them,
Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore.”

¹³^(N)For the Lord has chosen Zion;
He has desired it for His ^[d]dwelling place:
¹⁴“This^(O) is My resting place forever;
Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.
¹⁵^(P)I will abundantly bless her ^[e]provision;
I will satisfy her poor with bread.
¹⁶^(Q)I will also clothe her priests with salvation,
^(R)And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
¹⁷^(S)There I will make the ^[f]horn of David grow;
^(T)I will prepare a lamp for My ^[g]Anointed.
¹⁸His enemies I will ^(U)clothe with shame,
But upon Himself His crown shall flourish.”
