9. May Your priests be clothed with righteousness,and may Your godly people shout for joy.
10. Because of Your servant David,do not reject Your anointed one.
11. The Lord swore an oath to David,a promise He will not abandon:“I will set one of your descendants on your throne.
12. If your sons keep My covenantand My decrees that I will teach them,their sons will also sit on your throne forever.”
13. For the Lord has chosen Zion;He has desired it for His home:
14. “This is My resting place forever;I will make My home herebecause I have desired it.
15. I will abundantly bless its food;I will satisfy its needy with bread.
16. I will clothe its priests with salvation,and its godly people will shout for joy.
17. There I will make a horn grow for David; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed one.
18. I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown he wears will be glorious.”
