ASV(i)
1 A Song of Ascents.
Jehovah, remember for David
All his affliction; 2 How he sware unto Jehovah,
And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob: 3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house,
Nor go up into my bed; 4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes,
Or slumber to mine eyelids; 5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah,
A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob. 6 Lo, we heard of it in Ephrathah:
We found it in the field of the wood. 7 We will go into his tabernacles;
We will worship at his footstool. 8 Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;
Thou, and the ark of thy strength. 9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;
And let thy saints shout for joy. 10 For thy servant David's sake
Turn not away the face of thine anointed. 11 Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth;
He will not turn from it:
Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne. 12 If thy children will keep my covenant
And my testimony that I shall teach them,
Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore. 13 For Jehovah hath chosen Zion;
He hath desired it for his habitation. 14 This is my resting-place for ever:
Here will I dwell; for I have desired it. 15 I will abundantly bless her provision:
I will satisfy her poor with bread. 16 Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;
And her saints shall shout aloud for joy. 17 There will I make the horn of David to bud:
I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed. 18 His enemies will I clothe with shame;
But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
