| Verse | |
| 1. A song of Ascents. Lord, remember David And all his afflictions; | |
| 2. How he swore to the Lord, And vowed to the 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 not give sleep to my eyes Or slumber to my eyelids, | |
| 5. Until I find a place for the Lord, A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob." | |
| 6. Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah; We found it in the fields of the woods. | |
| 7. Let us go into His tabernacle; Let us worship at His footstool. | |
| 8. Arise, O Lord, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength. | |
| 9. Let Your priests be 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. The Lord has sworn in truth to David; He will not turn from it "I will set upon your throne 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. For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place | |
| 14. "This is My resting place forever; Here I will 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 I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. | |
| 18. His enemies I will clothe with shame, But upon Himself His crown shall flourish." |
