Psalms 132

1 Jehovah, remember for David all his affliction;

1A Song of the Ascents. Remember, Jehovah, for David, all his afflictions.

1A gradual canticle of David. Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity:

2 How he swore unto Jehovah, vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:

2Who hath sworn to Jehovah. He hath vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

2Like the precious ointment on the head, that ran down upon the beard, the beard of Aaron, Which ran down to the skirt of his garment:

3 I will not come into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed;

3`If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,

3As the dew of Hermon, which descendeth upon mount Sion. For there the Lord hath commanded blessing, and life for evermore.

4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, slumber to mine eyelids,

4If I give sleep to mine eyes, To mine eyelids--slumber,

5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob. ...

5Till I do find a place for Jehovah, Tabernacles for the Mighty One of Jacob.

7We come in to His tabernacles, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
