Psalms

 

Chapter

1)  LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:

2)  How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

3)  Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

4)  I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

5)  Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

6)  Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.

7)  We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

8)  Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.

9)  Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

10)  For thy servant David’s sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.

11)  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.

12)  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.

13)  For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

14)  This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

15)  I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16)  I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

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

18)  His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
