^[1]  Jehovah, remember for David All his affliction;

^[1]  ---

^[2]  How he sware unto Jehovah, And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:

^[2]  ---

^[3]  Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, Nor go up into my bed;

^[3]  ---

^[4]  I will not give sleep to mine eyes, Or slumber to mine eyelids;

^[4]  ---

^[5]  Until I find out a place for Jehovah, A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.

^[5]  ---

^[6]  Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah: We found it in the field of the wood.

^[6]  ---

^[7]  We will go into his tabernacles; We will worship at his footstool.

^[7]  ---

^[8]  Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place; Thou, and the ark of thy strength.

^[8]  ---

^[9]  Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; And let thy saints shout for joy.

^[9]  ---

^[10]  For thy servant David’s sake Turn not away the face of thine anointed.

^[10]  ---

^[11]  Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth; He will not turn from it: Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.

^[11]  ---

^[12]  If thy children will keep my covenant And my testimony that I shall teach them, Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.

^[12]  ---

^[13]  For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation.

^[13]  ---

^[14]  This is my resting-place for ever: Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

^[14]  ---

^[15]  I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

^[15]  ---

^[16]  Her priests also will I clothe with salvation; And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

^[16]  ---

^[17]  There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.

^[17]  ---

^[18]  His enemies will I clothe with shame; But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
