Psalms 132:7-16 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

7. Let’s go to the Lord’s house.Let’s worship at his footstool.

8. Rise, Lord, and come to your resting place.Come with the Ark of the Covenant that shows your strength.

9. May your priests do what is right.May your people sing for joy.

10. For the sake of your servant David,do not reject your appointed king.

11. The Lord made a promise to David.It was a sure promise that he will not take back.He promised, “I will make one of your descendantsrule as king after you.

12. But your sons must keep my agreementand the rules that I teach them.Then their sons after them will ruleon your throne forever and ever.”

13. The Lord has chosen Jerusalem.He wants it for his home.

14. He says, “This is my resting place forever.Here is where I want to stay.

15. I will bless her with plenty of food.I will fill her poor with food.

16. I will let her priests receive salvation.And those who worship me will really sing for joy.
