Psalm 132:9-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. Let your priests be clothed with righteousness,and let your saints shout for joy.

10. For the sake of your servant David, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

11. The Lord swore to David a sure oath from which he will not turn back: “One of the sons of your bodyI will set on your throne.

12. If your sons keep my covenantand my testimonies that I shall teach them,their sons also forevershall sit on your throne.”

13. For the Lord has chosen Zion;he has desired it for his dwelling place:

14. “This is my resting place forever;here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

15. I will abundantly bless her provisions;I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16. Her priests I will clothe with salvation,and her saints will shout for joy.

17. There I will make a horn to sprout for David;I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.

18. His enemies I will clothe with shame,but on him his crown will shine.”
