A Song of Ascents.Jehovah, remember for DavidAll his affliction;
How he sware unto Jehovah,And vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob:
Surely I will not come into the {Hebrew: tent.}tabernacle of my house,Nor go up into {Hebrew: the couch of my bed.}my bed;
I will not give sleep to mine eyes,Or slumber to mine eyelids;
Until I find out a place for Jehovah, {Hebrew: Tablernacles.}A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.
Lo, we heard of it in {Or, Ephraim}Ephrathah:We found it in the field of {Or, Jaar See 1 Chronicles 13:5.}the wood.
We will go into his tabernacles;We will worship at his footstool.
Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;And let thy saints shout for joy.
For thy servant David's sakeTurn not away the face of thine anointed.
Jehovah hath sworn unto David in truth;He will not turn from it:Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
If thy children will keep my covenantAnd my testimony that I shall teach them,Their children also shall sit upon thy throne for evermore.
For Jehovah hath chosen Zion;He hath desired it for his habitation.
This is my resting-place for ever:Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will {Or, surely}abundantly bless her provision:I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
There will I make {Or, a horn to spring forth unto David}the horn of David to bud:I have {Or, prepared}ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
His enemies will I clothe with shame;But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Arise, O Jehovah, into thy resting-place;Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness;And let thy saints shout for joy.
For thy servant David's sakeTurn not away the face of thine anointed.
This is my resting-place for ever:Here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
I will {Or, surely}abundantly bless her provision:I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Her priests also will I clothe with salvation;And her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
There will I make {Or, a horn to spring forth unto David}the horn of David to bud:I have {Or, prepared}ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
His enemies will I clothe with shame;But upon himself shall his crown flourish.
And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.

And day by day, continuing stedfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they took their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and soul: and not one of them said that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
A Song of Ascents.Behold, bless ye Jehovah, all ye servants of Jehovah,That by night stand in the house of Jehovah.
Lift up your hands {Or, in holiness}to the sanctuary,And bless ye Jehovah.
Jehovah bless thee out of Zion;Even he that made heaven and earth.
And these are the singers, heads of fathers' houses of the Levites, who dwelt in the chambers and were free from other service; for they were employed in their work day and night.
And day by day, continuing stedfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they took their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added {Greek: together.}to them day by day those that {Or, were being saved}were saved.
Jehovah bless thee out of Zion;Even he that made heaven and earth.
it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Jehovah; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments {Or, for song}of music, and praised Jehovah, saying, For he is good; for his lovingkindness endureth for ever; that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Jehovah,
so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Jehovah filled the house of God.
And when they had prayed, the place was shaken wherein they were gathered together; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and soul: and not one of them said that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
And with great power gave the apostles their witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus {Some ancient authorities add Christ.}: and great grace was upon them all.
