PSALM 131
Response:
Go up, Lord, to the place of your rest, you and the ark of your strength.
Verse 1:
At Ephrata we heard of the ark;
we found it in the plains of Yearim.
“Let us go to the place of his dwelling;
let us go to kneel at his footstool.”
Verse 2:
Your priests shall be clothed with holiness:
your faithful shall ring out their joy.
For the sake of David your servant
do not reject your anointed.
Verse 3:
For the Lord has chosen Zion;
he has desired it for his dwelling:
“This is my resting place for ever,
here have I chosen to live.”
