Psalms 132 A gradual canticle. O Lord, remember David, and all his meekness.

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ A gradual canticle. O Lord, remember David, and all his meekness. ² How he swore to the Lord, he vowed a vow to the God of Jacob: ³ If I shall enter into the tabernacle of my house: if I shall go up into the bed wherein I lie: ⁴ If I shall give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids, ⁵ Or rest to my temples: until I find out a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. ⁶ Behold we have heard of it in Ephrata: we have found it in the fields of the wood. ⁷ We will go into his tabernacle: we will adore in the place where his feet stood. ⁸ Arise, O Lord, into thy resting place: thou and the ark, which thou hast sanctified. ⁹ Let thy priests be clothed with justice: and let thy saints rejoice. ¹⁰ For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thy anointed. ¹¹ The Lord hath sworn truth to David, and he will not make it void: of the fruit of thy womb I will set upon thy throne. ¹² If thy children will keep my covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them: Their children also for evermore shall sit upon thy throne. ¹³ For the Lord hath chosen Sion: he hath chosen it for his dwelling. ¹⁴ This is my rest for ever and ever: here will I dwell, for I have chosen it. ¹⁵ Blessing I will bless her widow: I will satisfy her poor with bread. ¹⁶ I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall rejoice with exceeding great joy. ¹⁷ There will I bring forth a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for my anointed. ¹⁸ His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him shall my sanctification flourish.
