1Lord, remember David and all his self-denial.2He swore an oath to the Lord, he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:3‘I will not enter my house or go to my bed,4I will allow no sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,5till I find a place for the Lord, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.’6We heard it in Ephrathah, we came upon it in the fields of Jaar:*7‘Let us go to his dwelling-place, let us worship at his footstool, saying,8“Arise, Lord, and come to your resting-place, you and the ark of your might.9May your priests be clothed with your righteousness; may your faithful people sing for joy.” ’10For the sake of your servant David, do not reject your anointed one.11The Lord swore an oath to David, a sure oath he will not revoke: ‘One of your own descendants I will place on your throne.12If your sons keep my covenant and the statutes I teach them, then their sons shall sit on your throne for ever and ever.’13For the Lord has chosen Zion, he has desired it for his dwelling, saying,14‘This is my resting-place for ever and ever; here I will sit enthroned, for I have desired it.15I will bless her with abundant provisions; her poor I will satisfy with food.16I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her faithful people shall ever sing for joy.17‘Here I will make a horn* grow for David and set up a lamp for my anointed one.18I will clothe his enemies with shame, but his head shall be adorned with a radiant crown.’
