< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of degrees. Jehovah, remember for David all his affliction;
The song of greces. Lord, haue thou mynde on Dauid; and of al his myldenesse.
2 How he swore unto Jehovah, vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
As he swoor to the Lord; he made a vowe to God of Jacob.
3 I will not come into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of 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 mine eyes, slumber to mine eyelids,
I schal not yyue sleep to myn iyen; and napping to myn iye liddis.
5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah, habitations 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 Behold, we heard of it at Ephratah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
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 into his habitations, 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, Jehovah, into thy rest, thou and the ark of thy strength.
Lord, rise thou in to thi reste; thou and the ark of thin halewing.
9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, and let thy saints shout for joy.
Thi prestis be clothid with riytfulnesse; and thi seyntis make ful out ioye.
10 For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thine anointed.
For Dauid, thi seruaunt; turne thou not awei the face of thi crist.
11 Jehovah hath sworn [in] truth unto David; he will not turn from it: Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy 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 thy children keep my covenant, and my testimonies which I will teach them, their children also for evermore shall sit upon thy throne.
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 Jehovah hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his dwelling:
For the Lord chees Sion; he chees it in to dwelling to hym silf.
14 This is my rest for ever; here will I dwell, for I have desired it.
This is my reste in to the world of world; Y schal dwelle here, for Y chees it.
15 I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her needy ones with bread;
I blessynge schal blesse the widewe of it; Y schal fille with looues the pore men of it.
16 And I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
I schal clothe with heelthe the preestis therof; and the hooli men therof schulen make ful out ioye in ful reioisinge.
17 There will I cause the horn of David to bud forth; I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
Thidir Y schal bringe forth the horn of Dauid; Y made redi a lanterne to my crist.
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
I schal clothe hise enemyes with schame; but myn halewing schal floure out on hym.
