Psalms 132
1 A song of ascents. O LORD, remember on behalf of David all the hardships he endured,
The song of greces. Lord, haue thou mynde on Dauid; and of al his myldenesse.
2 how he swore an oath to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
As he swoor to the Lord; he made a vowe to God of Jacob.
3 “I will not enter my house or get into my bed,
I schal not entre in to the tabernacle of myn hous; Y schal not stie in to the bed of mi restyng.
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,
I schal not yyue sleep to myn iyen; and napping to myn iye liddis.
5 until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
And rest to my templis, til Y fynde a place to the Lord; a tabernacle to God of Jacob.
6 We heard that the ark was in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.
Lo! we herden that arke of testament in Effrata, `that is, in Silo; we founden it in the feeldis of the wode.
7 Let us go to His dwelling place; let us worship at His footstool.
We schulen entre in to the tabernacle of hym; we schulen worschipe in the place, where hise feet stoden.
8 Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength.
Lord, rise thou in to thi reste; thou and the ark of thin halewing.
9 May Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy.
Thi prestis be clothid with riytfulnesse; and thi seyntis make ful out ioye.
10 For the sake of Your servant David, do not reject Your anointed one.
For Dauid, thi seruaunt; turne thou not awei the face of thi crist.
11 The LORD swore an oath to David, a promise He will not revoke: “One of your descendants I will place on your throne.
The Lord swoor treuthe to Dauid, and he schal not make hym veyn; of the fruyt of thi wombe Y schal sette on thi seete.
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.”
If thi sones schulen kepe my testament; and my witnessingis, these whiche Y schal teche hem. And the sones of hem til in to the world; thei schulen sette on thi seete.
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His home:
For the Lord chees Sion; he chees it in to dwelling to hym silf.
14 “This is My resting place forever and ever; here I will dwell, for I have desired this home.
This is my reste in to the world of world; Y schal dwelle here, for Y chees it.
15 I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread.
I blessynge schal blesse the widewe of it; Y schal fille with looues the pore men of it.
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints will sing out in joy.
I schal clothe with heelthe the preestis therof; and the hooli men therof schulen make ful out ioye in ful reioisinge.
17 There I will make a horn grow for David; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed one.
Thidir Y schal bringe forth the horn of Dauid; Y made redi a lanterne to my crist.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown upon him will gleam.”
I schal clothe hise enemyes with schame; but myn halewing schal floure out on hym.
