Rappel des promesses de Dieu à David

¹ A Song of Ascents.
Remember, O Lord, in David's favor,
all the hardships he endured,
² how he swore to the Lord
and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,
³ I will not enter my house
or get into my bed,
⁴ I will not give sleep to my eyes
or slumber to my eyelids,
⁵ until I find a place for the Lord,
a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.
⁶ Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah;
we found it in the fields of Jaar.
⁷ Let us go to his dwelling place;
let us worship at his footstool!
⁸ Arise, O Lord, and go to your resting place,
you and the ark of your might.
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 body
I will set on your throne.
¹² If your sons keep my covenant
and my testimonies that I shall teach them,
their sons also forever
shall 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.
