< Psalms 132 >

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Jehovah, remember David and all his affliction,
שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת זְכוֹר־יְהֹוָה לְדָוִד אֵת כׇּל־עֻנּוֹתֽוֹ׃
2 how he swore to Jehovah, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע לַֽיהֹוָה נָדַר לַאֲבִיר יַעֲקֹֽב׃
3 "Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;
אִם־אָבֹא בְּאֹהֶל בֵּיתִי אִם־אֶעֱלֶה עַל־עֶרֶשׂ יְצוּעָֽי׃
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids;
אִם־אֶתֵּן שְׁנַת לְעֵינָי לְֽעַפְעַפַּי תְּנוּמָֽה׃
5 until I find out a place for Jehovah, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob."
עַד־אֶמְצָא מָקוֹם לַיהֹוָה מִשְׁכָּנוֹת לַאֲבִיר יַעֲקֹֽב׃
6 Look, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar:
הִנֵּֽה־שְׁמַעֲנוּהָ בְאֶפְרָתָה מְצָאנוּהָ בִּשְׂדֵי־יָֽעַר׃
7 "We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.
נָבוֹאָה לְמִשְׁכְּנוֹתָיו נִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה לַהֲדֹם רַגְלָֽיו׃
8 Arise, Jehovah, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength.
קוּמָה יְהֹוָה לִמְנוּחָתֶךָ אַתָּה וַאֲרוֹן עֻזֶּֽךָ׃
9 Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your faithful ones shout for joy."
כֹּהֲנֶיךָ יִלְבְּשׁוּ־צֶדֶק וַחֲסִידֶיךָ יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃
10 For your servant David's sake, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.
בַּֽעֲבוּר דָּוִד עַבְדֶּךָ אַל־תָּשֵׁב פְּנֵי מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃
11 Jehovah has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: "I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
נִשְׁבַּֽע־יְהֹוָה ׀ לְדָוִד אֱמֶת לֹא־יָשׁוּב מִמֶּנָּה מִפְּרִי בִטְנְךָ אָשִׁית לְכִסֵּא־לָֽךְ׃
12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forevermore."
אִֽם־יִשְׁמְרוּ בָנֶיךָ ׀ בְּרִיתִי וְעֵדֹתִי זוֹ אֲלַמְּדֵם גַּם־בְּנֵיהֶם עֲדֵי־עַד יֵשְׁבוּ לְכִסֵּא־לָֽךְ׃
13 For Jehovah has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling.
כִּי־בָחַר יְהֹוָה בְּצִיּוֹן אִוָּהּ לְמוֹשָׁב לֽוֹ׃
14 "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.
זֹאת־מְנוּחָתִי עֲדֵי־עַד פֹּה־אֵשֵׁב כִּי אִוִּתִֽיהָ׃
15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
צֵידָהּ בָּרֵךְ אֲבָרֵךְ אֶבְיוֹנֶיהָ אַשְׂבִּיעַֽ לָֽחֶם׃
16 Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her faithful ones will shout aloud for joy.
וְֽכֹהֲנֶיהָ אַלְבִּישׁ יֶשַׁע וַחֲסִידֶיהָ רַנֵּן יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃
17 There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
שָׁם אַצְמִיחַ קֶרֶן לְדָוִד עָרַכְתִּי נֵר לִמְשִׁיחִֽי׃
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will be resplendent."
אוֹיְבָיו אַלְבִּישׁ בֹּשֶׁת וְעָלָיו יָצִיץ נִזְרֽוֹ׃
