1
Lord, remember David, and all that he went through.
2
He made a promise to the Lord, a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3
“I will not go home, I will not go to bed,
4
I will not go to sleep, I will not take a nap,
5
until I find a place where the Lord can live, a home for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6
In Ephrathah we received information about the Ark of Agreement, and we found it in fields near Jaar.

Kiriath Jearim. See 1 Samuel 7.
7
Let's go to the place where the Lord lives and bow down at his feet in worship.
8
Come, Lord, and enter your home, together with your Ark of your power.

Notes
+
Literally, “resting place,” but with the sense that this is the usual place where someone resides, hence “home.”
9
May your priests wear goodness like clothing; may your faithful people shout for joy.
10
For the sake of your servant David, don't reject the king you have chosen.
11
The Lord made a solemn promise to David, one he will never cancel—“I will put one of your descendants on your throne.
12
If your sons keep to my agreement and my laws that I will teach them, then their sons will always occupy your throne.”
13
For the Lord has chosen Zion, wanting to make his home there, saying:
14
“This will always be my home; this is where I want to live.
15
I will provide the people of the city with all they need; I will feed the poor.
16
I will clothe its priests with salvation; and its faithful people will shout for joy.
17
I will make the line of David even more powerful. I have prepared a lamp for my chosen king.

Notes
+
Literally, “I will make a horn sprout for David.”
18
I will humiliate his enemies, but the crown he wears will shine brightly.”
