1 A song of ascents. O LORD, remember on behalf of David all the hardships he endured, | C | TOSK |
2 how he swore an oath to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: | C | TOSK |
3 “I will not enter my house or get into my bed, | C | TOSK |
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids, | C | TOSK |
5 until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.” | C | TOSK | ATN |
6 We heard that the ark was in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar. | IP¹ | IP² | C | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² |
7 Let us go to His dwelling place; let us worship at His footstool. | IP¹ | IP² | C | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² |
8 Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength. | IP¹ | IP² | IP³ | C | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² | TT³ | ATN |
9 May Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy. | IP | C¹ | C² | TOSK | TT |
10 For the sake of Your servant David, do not reject Your anointed one. | IP | C¹ | C² | TOSK | TT |
11 The LORD swore an oath to David, a promise He will not revoke: "One of your descendants I will place on your throne. | IP¹ | IP² | C¹ | C² | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² | ATN |
12 If your sons keep My covenant and the testimony I will teach them, then their sons will also sit on your throne forever and ever." | IP¹ | IP² | C¹ | C² | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² | ATN |
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His home: | IP¹ | IP² | C¹ | C² | TOSK | TT¹ | TT² | TT³ | ATN |
14 “This is My resting place forever and ever; here I will dwell, for I have desired this home. | C¹ | C² | TOSK |
15 I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread. | C¹ | C² | TOSK |
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints will sing out in joy. | C¹ | C² | TOSK |
17 There I will make a horn grow for David; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed one. | IP | C | TOSK | ATN |
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown upon him will gleam.” | C | TOSK |
