until I find a home for the Lord,
    a tent for the Mighty God of Jacob!”

We heard about this in Ephrathah.[a]

    Let’s worship at his throne.[c]

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 132:6 Ephrathah Bethlehem, the town where David was born.
  2. Psalm 132:6 Kiriath Jearim Literally, “fields of the forest.” The Hebrew word meaning “forest” is like the name of this city.
  3. Psalm 132:7 at his throne Literally, “at his footstool.” This can mean the Box of the Agreement, the Holy Tent, or the Temple. God is like a king sitting on his throne and resting his feet on the place where people worship him.
