< Psalms 132 >

1 The song of greces. Lord, haue thou mynde on Dauid; and of al his myldenesse.
Adonai, remember David [Beloved] and all his affliction,
2 As he swoor to the Lord; he made a vowe to God of Jacob.
how he swore to Adonai, and vowed to the 'Avir Ya'akov [Mighty One of Supplanter]:
3 I schal not entre in to the tabernacle of myn hous; Y schal not stie in to the bed of mi restyng.
“Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;
4 I schal not yyue sleep to myn iyen; and napping to myn iye liddis.
I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids;
5 And rest to my templis, til Y fynde a place to the Lord; a tabernacle to God of Jacob.
until I find out a place for Adonai, a dwelling for the 'Avir Ya'akov [Mighty One of Supplanter].”
6 Lo! we herden that arke of testament in Effrata, `that is, in Silo; we founden it in the feeldis of the wode.
Behold, we sh'ma ·heard obeyed· of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar:
7 We schulen entre in to the tabernacle of hym; we schulen worschipe in the place, where hise feet stoden.
“We will go into his dwelling place. We will hawa ·bow low, prostrate· to worship at his footstool.
8 Lord, rise thou in to thi reste; thou and the ark of thin halewing.
Arise, Adonai, into your resting place; you, and the ark of your strength.
9 Thi prestis be clothid with riytfulnesse; and thi seyntis make ful out ioye.
Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!”
10 For Dauid, thi seruaunt; turne thou not awei the face of thi crist.
For your servant David [Beloved]’s sake, don’t turn away the face of your anointed one.
11 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.
Adonai has sworn to David [Beloved] in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
12 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.
If your children will keep my covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.”
13 For the Lord chees Sion; he chees it in to dwelling to hym silf.
For Adonai has chosen Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking]. He has desired it for his habitation.
14 This is my reste in to the world of world; Y schal dwelle here, for Y chees it.
“This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.
15 I blessynge schal blesse the widewe of it; Y schal fille with looues the pore men of it.
I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
16 I schal clothe with heelthe the preestis therof; and the hooli men therof schulen make ful out ioye in ful reioisinge.
Her priests I will also clothe with yesha' ·salvation·. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.
17 Thidir Y schal bringe forth the horn of Dauid; Y made redi a lanterne to my crist.
There I will make the horn of David [Beloved] to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
18 I schal clothe hise enemyes with schame; but myn halewing schal floure out on hym.
I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will be resplendent.”
