上行之诗。

圣殿颂

132 耶和华啊,求你记念大卫
    记念他所受的一切苦难!
他怎样向耶和华起誓,
    雅各的大能者许愿:
“我必不进我的帐幕,
    也不上我的床铺;
我不容我的眼睛睡觉,
    也不容我的眼皮打盹;
直等到我为耶和华寻得所在,
    雅各的大能者寻得居所。”

我们听说约柜在以法他
    我们在雅珥[a]的田野寻见它。
“我们要进他的居所,
    在他脚凳前下拜。”

耶和华啊,求你兴起,
    与你有能力的约柜同入安歇之所!
愿你的祭司披上公义!
    愿你的圣民欢呼!
10 求你因你仆人大卫的缘故,
    不要厌弃你的受膏者!

11 耶和华凭信实向大卫
    起了誓,绝不改变:
“我要立你身所生的
    坐在你的宝座上。
12 你的众子若谨守我的约和我所教导他们的法度,
    他们的子孙必永远坐在你的宝座上。”

13 因为耶和华拣选了锡安
    愿意当作自己的居所:
14 “这是我永远安歇之所;
    我要住在这地方,因为我愿意在这里。
15 我要赐福使粮食丰足,
    使其中的贫穷人饱享食物。
16 我要使祭司披上救恩,
    圣民就要大声欢呼!
17 在那里我要使大卫的角茁壮,
    为我的受膏者预备明灯。
18 我要使他的仇敌披上羞耻;
    但他的冠冕要在他头上发光。”

Psalm 132(A)

A song of ascents.

Lord, remember David
    and all his self-denial.(B)

He swore an oath to the Lord,
    he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:(C)
“I will not enter my house(D)
    or go to my bed,
I will allow no sleep to my eyes
    or slumber to my eyelids,
till I find a place(E) for the Lord,
    a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

We heard it in Ephrathah,(F)
    we came upon it in the fields of Jaar:[a](G)
“Let us go to his dwelling place,(H)
    let us worship at his footstool,(I) saying,
‘Arise, Lord,(J) and come to your resting place,
    you and the ark of your might.
May your priests be clothed with your righteousness;(K)
    may your faithful people(L) sing for joy.’”

10 For the sake of your servant David,
    do not reject your anointed one.

11 The Lord swore an oath to David,(M)
    a sure oath he will not revoke:
“One of your own descendants(N)
    I will place on your throne.
12 If your sons keep my covenant(O)
    and the statutes I teach them,
then their sons will sit
    on your throne(P) for ever and ever.”

13 For the Lord has chosen Zion,(Q)
    he has desired it for his dwelling,(R) saying,
14 “This is my resting place for ever and ever;(S)
    here I will sit enthroned,(T) for I have desired it.
15 I will bless her with abundant provisions;
    her poor I will satisfy with food.(U)
16 I will clothe her priests(V) with salvation,
    and her faithful people will ever sing for joy.(W)

17 “Here I will make a horn[b] grow(X) for David
    and set up a lamp(Y) for my anointed one.(Z)
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame,(AA)
    but his head will be adorned with a radiant crown.”(AB)

The Lord Has Chosen Zion

A Song of (A)Ascents.

132 Remember, O Lord, in David's favor,
    all (B)the hardships he endured,
how he swore to the Lord
    and (C)vowed to (D)the Mighty One of Jacob,
“I will not enter my house
    or get into my bed,
I will not (E)give sleep to my eyes
    or slumber to my eyelids,
until I (F)find a place for the Lord,
    a dwelling place for (G)the Mighty One of Jacob.”

Behold, we heard of it in (H)Ephrathah;
    we found it in (I)the fields of Jaar.
“Let us go to his dwelling place;
    let us (J)worship at his (K)footstool!”

(L)Arise, O Lord, and go to your (M)resting place,
    you and the ark of your (N)might.
Let your (O)priests be (P)clothed with righteousness,
    and let your (Q)saints shout for joy.
10 For the sake of your servant David,
    (R)do not turn away the face of (S)your anointed one.

11 (T)The Lord swore to David a sure oath
    (U)from which he will not turn back:
(V)“One of the sons of your body[a]
    I will set on your throne.
12 If your sons keep my covenant
    and my testimonies that I shall teach them,
their sons also forever
    shall (W)sit on your throne.”

13 For the Lord has (X)chosen Zion;
    he has (Y)desired it for his dwelling place:
14 “This is my (Z)resting place forever;
    here I will (AA)dwell, for I have desired it.
15 I will abundantly (AB)bless her provisions;
    I will (AC)satisfy her poor with bread.
16 Her (AD)priests I will clothe with salvation,
    and her (AE)saints will shout for joy.
17 There I will make (AF)a horn to sprout for David;
    I have prepared (AG)a lamp for (AH)my anointed.
18 His enemies I will (AI)clothe with shame,
    but on him his crown will shine.”
