Psalm 132  Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

⁶ We heard of the ark in Ephrathah;^[a](E)
we found it in the fields of Jaar.^[b](F)
7 Let’s go to his dwelling place;
let’s worship at his footstool.^(G)
8 Rise up, Lord, come to your resting place,
you and your powerful ark.^(H)
9 May your priests be clothed with righteousness,
and may your faithful people shout for joy.^(I)
10 For the sake of your servant David,
do not reject your anointed one.^[c](J)

¹¹ The Lord swore an oath to David,
a promise he will not abandon:
‘I will set one of your offspring^[d]
on your throne.^(K)
12 If your sons keep my covenant
and my decrees that I will teach them,
their sons will also sit on your throne for ever.’^(L)

¹³ For the Lord has chosen Zion;
he has desired it for his home:^(M)
14 ‘This is my resting place for ever;
I will make my home here
because I have desired it.^(N)
15 I will abundantly bless its food;
I will satisfy its needy with bread.^(O)
16 I will clothe its priests with salvation,
and its faithful people will shout for joy.^(P)
17 There I will make a horn grow for David;^(Q)
I have prepared a lamp^[e] for my anointed one.^(R)
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame,^(S)
but the crown he wears^[f] will be glorious.’^(T)
