Salmos 132

The Eternal Dwelling of God in Zion

A Song of Ascents.

1 Lord, remember David

And all his afflictions;

2 How he swore to the Lord,

*(Ps. 130:7)And vowed to *Ps. 65:1the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 "Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house,

Or go up to the comfort of my bed;

4 I will *Gen. 49:24; Is. 49:26; 60:16not give sleep to my eyes

Or slumber to my eyelids,

5 Until I *Prov. 6:4find a place for the Lord,

A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob."

6 Behold, we heard of it *1 Kin. 8:17; 1 Chr. 22:7; Ps. 26:8; Acts 7:46in Ephrathah;

*1 Sam. 17:12We found it *1 Sam. 7:1in the fields of the woods.

7 Let us go into His tabernacle;

*1 Chr. 13:5Let us worship at His footstool.

8 *Ps. 5:7; 99:5Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place,

You and *Num. 10:35the ark of Your strength.

9 Let Your priests *Ps. 78:61be clothed with righteousness,

And let Your saints shout for joy.

10 For Your servant David’s sake,

Do not turn away the face of Your Anointed.

11 *Job 29:14The Lord has sworn in truth to David;

He will not turn from it:

"I will set upon your throne *(Ps. 89:3, 4, 33; 110:4)the fruit of your body.

12 If your sons will keep My covenant

And My testimony which I shall teach them,

Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore."

13 *2 Sam. 7:12; (1 Kin. 8:25; 2 Chr. 6:16; Luke 1:69; Acts 2:30)For the Lord has chosen Zion;

He has desired it for His dwelling place:

14 "This*(Ps. 48:1, 2)is My resting place forever;

Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

15 *Ps. 68:16; Matt. 23:21I will abundantly bless her provision;

I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16 *Ps. 147:14I will also clothe her priests with salvation,

*2 Chr. 6:41; Ps. 132:9; 149:4And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

17 *1 Sam. 4:5; Hos. 11:12There I will make the horn of David grow;

*Ezek. 29:21; Luke 1:69I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed.

18 His enemies I will *1 Kin. 11:36; 15:4; 2 Kin. 8:19; 2 Chr. 21:7; Ps. 18:28clothe with shame,

But upon Himself His crown shall flourish."
