Psalms 132
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Remember, YHWH, for David, all his afflictions;
| שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת זְכוֹר־יְהוָה לְדָוִד אֵת כָּל־עֻנּוֹתֽוֹ׃ |
2 Who has sworn to YHWH, He has vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
| אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע לַיהוָה נָדַר לַאֲבִיר יַעֲקֹֽב׃ |
3 “If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,
| אִם־אָבֹא בְּאֹהֶל בֵּיתִי אִם־אֶעֱלֶה עַל־עֶרֶשׂ יְצוּעָֽי׃ |
4 If I give sleep to my eyes, To my eyelids—slumber,
| אִם־אֶתֵּן שְׁנַת לְעֵינָי לְֽעַפְעַפַּי תְּנוּמָֽה׃ |
5 Until I find a place for YHWH, dwelling places for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
| עַד־אֶמְצָא מָקוֹם לַיהוָה מִשְׁכָּנוֹת לַאֲבִיר יַעֲקֹֽב׃ |
6 Behold, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the fields of the forest.
| הִנֵּֽה־שְׁמַֽעֲנוּהָ בְאֶפְרָתָה מְצָאנוּהָ בִּשְׂדֵי־יָֽעַר׃ |
7 We come into His dwelling places, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
| נָבוֹאָה לְמִשְׁכְּנוֹתָיו נִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה לַהֲדֹם רַגְלָֽיו׃ |
8 Arise, O YHWH, to Your rest, You, and the Ark of Your strength,
| קוּמָה יְהוָה לִמְנוּחָתֶךָ אַתָּה וַאֲרוֹן עֻזֶּֽךָ׃ |
9 Your priests put on righteousness, And Your pious ones cry aloud.
| כֹּהֲנֶיךָ יִלְבְּשׁוּ־צֶדֶק וַחֲסִידֶיךָ יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃ |
10 For the sake of Your servant David, Do not turn back the face of Your anointed.
| בַּעֲבוּר דָּוִד עַבְדֶּךָ אַל־תָּשֵׁב פְּנֵי מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃ |
11 YHWH has sworn truth to David, He does not turn back from it: “Of the fruit of your body, I set on the throne for you.
| נִשְׁבַּֽע־יְהוָה ׀ לְדָוִד אֱמֶת לֹֽא־יָשׁוּב מִמֶּנָּה מִפְּרִי בִטְנְךָ אָשִׁית לְכִסֵּא־לָֽךְ׃ |
12 If your sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I teach them, Their sons also forever and ever Sit on the throne for you.”
| אִֽם־יִשְׁמְרוּ בָנֶיךָ ׀ בְּרִיתִי וְעֵדֹתִי זוֹ אֲלַמְּדֵם גַּם־בְּנֵיהֶם עֲדֵי־עַד יֵשְׁבוּ לְכִסֵּא־לָֽךְ׃ |
13 For YHWH has fixed on Zion, He has desired [it] for a seat to Himself,
| כִּֽי־בָחַר יְהוָה בְּצִיּוֹן אִוָּהּ לְמוֹשָׁב לֽוֹ׃ |
14 “This [is] My rest forever and ever, Here I sit, for I have desired it.
| זֹאת־מְנוּחָתִי עֲדֵי־עַד פֹּֽה־אֵשֵׁב כִּי אִוִּתִֽיהָ׃ |
15 I greatly bless her provision, I satisfy her poor [with] bread,
| צֵידָהּ בָּרֵךְ אֲבָרֵךְ אֶבְיוֹנֶיהָ אַשְׂבִּיעַֽ לָֽחֶם׃ |
16 And I clothe her priests [with] salvation, And her pious ones sing aloud.
| וְֽכֹהֲנֶיהָ אַלְבִּישׁ יֶשַׁע וַחֲסִידֶיהָ רַנֵּן יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃ |
17 There I cause a horn to spring up for David, I have arranged a lamp for My Anointed.
| שָׁם אַצְמִיחַ קֶרֶן לְדָוִד עָרַכְתִּי נֵר לִמְשִׁיחִֽי׃ |
18 I clothe His enemies [with] shame, And His crown flourishes on Him!”
| אוֹיְבָיו אַלְבִּישׁ בֹּשֶׁת וְעָלָיו יָצִיץ נִזְרֽוֹ׃ |
