1LORD , do not forget David
and all the hardships he endured.
2Remember, LORD , what he promised,
the vow he made to you, the Mighty God of Jacob:
3“I will not go home or go to bed;
4I will not rest or sleep,
5until I provide a place for the LORD ,
a home for the Mighty God of Jacob.”
6In Bethlehem we heard about the Covenant Box,[#2 Chr 6.41–42]
and we found it in the fields of Jearim.
7We said, “Let us go to the LORD 's house;
let us worship before his throne.”
8Come to the Temple, LORD , with the Covenant Box,
the symbol of your power,
and stay here for ever.
9May your priests do always what is right;
may your people shout for joy!
10You made a promise to your servant David;
do not reject your chosen king, LORD .
11You made a solemn promise to David —[#2 Sam 7.12–16; 1 Chr 17.11–14; Ps 89.3–4; Acts 2.30]
a promise you will not take back:
“I will make one of your sons king,
and he will rule after you.
12If your sons are true to my covenant
and to the commands I give them,
their sons, also, will succeed you for all time as kings.”
13The LORD has chosen Zion;
he wants to make it his home:
14“This is where I will live for ever;
this is where I want to rule.
15I will richly provide Zion with all she needs;
I will satisfy her poor with food.
16I will bless her priests in all they do,
and her people will sing and shout for joy.
17Here I will make one of David's descendants a great king;[#1 Kgs 11.36]
here I will preserve the rule of my chosen king.
18I will cover his enemies with shame,
but his kingdom will prosper and flourish.”
