1A Song of Degrees. Lord, remember David, and all his meekness: 2how he sware to the Lord, [and] vowed to the God of Jacob, [saying], 3I will not go into the tabernacle of my house; I will not go up to the couch of my bed; 4I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids, nor rest to my temples, 5until I find a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. 6Behold, we heard of it in Ephratha; we found it in the fields of the wood. 7Let us enter into his tabernacles: let us worship at the place where his feet stood. 8Arise, O Lord, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thine holiness. 9Thy priests shall clothe themselves with righteousness; and thy saints shall exult. 10For the sake of thy servant David turn not away the face of thine anointed. 11The Lord sware [in] truth to David, and he will not annul it, [saying], Of the fruit of thy body will I set [a king] upon thy throne. 12If thy children will keep my covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them, their children also shall sit upon thy throne for ever. 13For the Lord has elected Sion, he has chosen her for a habitation for himself, [saying], 14This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have chosen it. 15I will surely bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread. 16I will clothe her priests with salvation; and her saints shall greatly exult. 17There will I cause to spring up a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for mine anointed. 18His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon himself shall my holiness flourish.
