supplication.

law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word:

Lord.

are my eyes lofty. Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in
wonderful things above me.

is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul. 130:3. Let Israel

up into the bed wherein I lie:

131:5. Or rest to my temples: until I find out a place for the Lord, a
tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
131:6. Behold we have heard of it in Ephrata: we have found it in the
fields of the wood.

Bethlehem, otherwise called Ephrata, I heard of God's tabernacle and
ark, and had a devout desire of seeking it; and accordingly I found it
at Cariathiarim, the city of the woods: where it was till it was removed
to Jerusalem. See 1 Par. 13.

his feet stood.

thou hast sanctified.

rejoice.

anointed.

void: of the fruit of thy womb I will set upon thy throne.

which I shall teach them: Their children also for evermore shall sit
upon thy throne.
