Song
of

Ascents.
Remember,
Jehovah
, for
David, all his afflictions .
Lord
, remember
David, and
all his afflictions :
Who
hath
sworn
to
Jehovah.
He hath
vowed to
the Mighty One
of Jacob :
How
he sware
unto
the
LORD,
and
vowed unto
the mighty God
of Jacob ;
`If
I enter
into the tent
of my house, If
I
go up on
the
couch
of
my bed ,
Surely
I will
not
come
into the tabernacle
of my house, nor
go up into
my bed ;
If
I give sleep to mine eyes, To mine eyelids --
slumber
,
I will
not
give sleep to mine eyes, or
slumber
to mine eyelids,
Till
I do
find a place for Jehovah
, Tabernacles
for the Mighty One
of Jacob.
Until
I find out
a place for the
LORD
, an
habitation
for the mighty God
of Jacob.
`
Lo, we have
heard it in
Ephratah ,
We have
found it in the fields of the forest
.
Lo, we heard of
it at
Ephratah :
we found it in the fields of the wood
.
We come
in
to
His tabernacles ,
We bow
ourselves
at His footstool.
We will
go
into
his tabernacles :
we will
worship
at his footstool.
Arise, O Jehovah
, to
Thy rest ,
Thou, and the ark of Thy strength ,
Arise, O LORD
, into
thy rest ;
thou, and the ark of thy strength .
Thy priests do
put
on
righteousness ,
And Thy pious
ones
cry
aloud
.
Let
thy priests be
clothed
with
righteousness ;
and let
thy saints
shout
for
joy
.
For the
sake
of
David
Thy servant ,
Turn not back
the face of Thine anointed.
For thy servant David's
sake
turn not away
the face of thine anointed.
Jehovah
hath sworn truth to
David ,
He turneth
not back
from it :
Of the fruit of thy body ,
I set on
the
throne for
thee
.
The
LORD
hath sworn in
truth unto
David ;
he will
not turn
from it ;
Of the fruit of thy body will
I set upon
thy
throne.
If thy sons
keep My covenant ,
And My testimonies
that I teach them, Their sons
also for
ever
and
ever,
Do
sit on
the
throne for thee
.
If thy children
will
keep my covenant and my testimony
that I shall
teach them, their children
shall
also sit upon
thy
throne for evermore
.
For Jehovah
hath fixed
on
Zion ,
He hath desired `
it '
for a
seat
to
Himself,
For the
LORD
hath chosen
Zion ;
he hath desired it for his
habitation.
This `
is '
My rest for ever and
ever,
Here do
I sit,
for I have desired it.
This is my rest for ever :
here will
I dwell;
for I have desired it.
Her
provision
I greatly
bless ,
Her needy
ones
I satisfy `
with '
bread ,

abundantly
bless her provision:
I will
satisfy her
poor
with bread .
And
her
priests
I clothe `
with '
salvation ,
And her pious
ones
do
sing
aloud.
I will
also
clothe her
priests
with salvation :
and her saints
shall
shout
aloud for
joy
.
There I cause
to
spring
up
a
horn for
David ,
I have arranged
a lamp for Mine anointed.
There will
I make
the
horn of
David to
bud:
I have ordained
a lamp for mine anointed.
His enemies I do
clothe `
with '
shame ,
And
upon him
doth
his crown flourish !
His enemies will
I clothe with shame :
but
upon himself
shall
his crown flourish .
