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 decrees that I shall teach them,
their sons also, for evermore,
   shall sit on your throne.’

¹³ For the Lord has chosen Zion;
   he has desired it for his habitation:
¹⁴ ‘This is my resting-place for ever;
   here I will reside, for I have desired it.
¹⁵ I will abundantly bless its provisions;
   I will satisfy its poor with bread.
¹⁶ Its priests I will clothe with salvation,
   and its faithful will shout for joy.
¹⁷ There I will cause a horn to sprout up for David;
   I have prepared a lamp for my anointed one.
¹⁸ His enemies I will clothe with disgrace,
   but on him, his crown will gleam.’
