\v 1 Yahweh, do not forget King David
|
|
\q2 and all the hardships he endured!
|
|
\b
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 He made a solemn promise to you,

|
|
\v 3 He said, "I will not go home,
|

\v 4 and I will not sleep at all
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 until I build a place for Yahweh,

\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 In Ephrathah we heard where the sacred chest was.
|
|
\q2 So we went and found it near the city of Kiriath Jearim, and we took it to Jerusalem.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Later we said, "Let us go to the sacred tent of Yahweh in Jerusalem;
|
|
\q2 let us worship there in front of the throne where he is sitting."
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally,
|
|
\q2 to the place where your sacred chest is,
|
|
\q2 to the place that shows that you are very powerful.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 I want that the righteous behavior of your priests will always be evident,
|

\q1 and that your people will always shout joyfully.
|
|
\b
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 You chose David to serve you as king of Israel;
|
|
\q2 do not reject him!
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David,
|
|
\q2 a promise that you will not break.
|
|
\q1 You said, "I will cause your descendants to rule as kings like you.
|
|
\q2
|
|
\v 12 If they obey my covenant with them
|
|
\q2 and obey all the commands that I will give them,
|
|
\q1 the line of kings descended from you will never end."
|

|
|
\q1
|

\v 14 He said, "This is the city where I will live forever;
|
|
\q2 this is the place where I want to stay.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 15 I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need;
|
|
\q2 I will give enough food to satisfy even the poor people there.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 16 I will cause the priests to behave in a manner worthy of ones whom I have saved;
|
|
\q2 and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 17 There in Jerusalem I will cause one of David's descendants to become a great king;
|
|
\q2 he also will be my chosen king,
|
|
\q1 It is there that I will make David's line of descendants continue.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 18 I will defeat his enemies and cause them to be very ashamed;
|
|
\q2 but the crown that my king wears will always shine."
