- 1. A Song of the Ascents. Remember, Jehovah, for David, all his afflictions.
- 2. Who hath sworn to Jehovah. He hath vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
- 3. `If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,
- 4. If I give sleep to mine eyes, To mine eyelids -- slumber,
- 5. Till I do find a place for Jehovah, Tabernacles for the Mighty One of Jacob.
- 6. `Lo, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the fields of the forest.
- 7. We come in to His tabernacles, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
- 8. Arise, O Jehovah, to Thy rest, Thou, and the ark of Thy strength,
- 9. Thy priests do put on righteousness, And Thy pious ones cry aloud.
- 10. For the sake of David Thy servant, Turn not back the face of Thine anointed.
- 11. Jehovah hath sworn truth to David, He turneth not back from it: Of the fruit of thy body, I set on the throne for thee.
- 12. If thy sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I teach them, Their sons also for ever and ever, Do sit on the throne for thee.
- 13. For Jehovah hath fixed on Zion, He hath desired `it' for a seat to Himself,
- 14. This `is' My rest for ever and ever, Here do I sit, for I have desired it.
- 15. Her provision I greatly bless, Her needy ones I satisfy `with' bread,
- 16. And her priests I clothe `with' salvation, And her pious ones do sing aloud.
- 17. There I cause to spring up a horn for David, I have arranged a lamp for Mine anointed.
- 18. His enemies I do clothe `with' shame, And upon him doth his crown flourish!
