10 In honor of your servant David, don't turn your back on your anointed king.
11 The Lord took an oath and made a promise to David. It is a firm promise that he will never break. He said, "After you die, I will place one of your own sons on your throne.
12 If your sons keep my covenant and the laws I teach them, then their sons will sit on your throne for ever and ever."
13 The Lord has chosen Zion. That's the place where he wants to live.
14 He has said, "This will be my resting place for ever and ever. Here I will sit on my throne, because that's what I want.
15 I will greatly bless Zion with everything it needs. I will give plenty of food to the poor people living there.
16 I will put salvation on its priests as if it were their clothes. God's faithful people will always sing with joy.
