Notes on this text (4)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
- Psalms are numbered as in the Septuagint (Psalm 50 = Psalm 51 in English Bibles); verse numbers follow the Russian Synodal Bible, where a psalm's title is verse 1 (or 1–2).
- Psalms 13, 71, 92, 127 and 129 divide their verses differently from the Russian Synodal Bible, so a few verse numbers there do not match it; the line "The songs of David, son of Jesse, are ended" opens Psalm 72 (with its title) instead of closing Psalm 71.
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
Psalm 131 in Slavonic = Psalm 132 in WEB.

132:1 A Song of Ascents. Yahweh, remember David and all his affliction,
2 ꙗ҆́кѡ клѧ́тсѧ гдⷭ҇еви, ѡ҆бѣща́сѧ бг҃ꙋ і҆а́кѡвлю:
132:2 how he swore to Yahweh, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3 а҆́ще вни́дꙋ въ селе́нїе до́мꙋ моегѡ̀, и҆лѝ взы́дꙋ на ѻ҆́дръ посте́ли моеѧ̀:
132:3 “Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;
4 а҆́ще да́мъ со́нъ ѻ҆чи́ма мои́ма, и҆ вѣ́ждома мои́ма дрема́нїе, и҆ поко́й скранїа́ма мои́ма:
132:4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids,
5 до́ндеже ѡ҆брѧ́щꙋ мѣ́сто гдⷭ҇еви, селе́нїе бг҃ꙋ і҆а́кѡвлю.
132:5 until I find out a place for Yahweh, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6 Сѐ, слы́шахомъ ѧ҆̀ во є҆ѵфра́ѳѣ, ѡ҆брѣто́хомъ ѧ҆̀ въ полѧ́хъ дꙋбра́вы:
132:6 Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar.
7 вни́демъ въ селє́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀, поклони́мсѧ на мѣ́сто, и҆дѣ́же стоѧ́стѣ но́зѣ є҆гѡ̀.
132:7 “We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.”

132:9 Let your priests be clothed with righteousness. Let your saints shout for joy!
10 Дв҃да ра́ди раба̀ твоегѡ̀, не ѿвратѝ лицѐ пома́заннагѡ твоегѡ̀.
132:10 For your servant David’s sake, don’t turn away the face of your anointed one.
11 Клѧ́тсѧ гдⷭ҇ь дв҃дꙋ и҆́стиною, и҆ не ѿве́ржетсѧ є҆ѧ̀: ѿ плода̀ чре́ва твоегѡ̀ посаждꙋ̀ на престо́лѣ твое́мъ.
132:11 Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.
12 А҆́ще сохранѧ́тъ сы́нове твоѝ завѣ́тъ мо́й и҆ свидѣ̑нїѧ моѧ̑ сїѧ̑, и҆̀мже наꙋчꙋ̀ ѧ҆̀, и҆ сы́нове и҆́хъ до вѣ́ка сѧ́дꙋтъ на престо́лѣ твое́мъ.
132:12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forever more.”
13 Ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆збра̀ гдⷭ҇ь сїѡ́на, и҆зво́ли и҆̀ въ жили́ще себѣ̀.
132:13 For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.
14 Се́й поко́й мо́й во вѣ́къ вѣ́ка, здѣ̀ вселю́сѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆зво́лихъ и҆̀.
132:14 “This is my resting place forever. I will live here, for I have desired it.
15 Лови́твꙋ є҆гѡ̀ блгⷭ҇влѧ́ѧй блгⷭ҇влю̀, ни́щыѧ є҆гѡ̀ насы́щꙋ хлѣ̑бы:
132:15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.
16 сщ҃е́нники є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆блекꙋ̀ во спⷭ҇нїе, и҆ прпⷣбнїи є҆гѡ̀ ра́достїю возра́дꙋютсѧ.
132:16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 132.
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
In this Psalm, the humility of one that is a servant of God and faithful is commended unto us, by whose voice it is sung; which is the whole body of Christ.

Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy seat." And again: "In Judea is God known; His place has been made in peace, and His dwelling in Zion." Therefore there is one and the same God, who was proclaimed by the prophets and announced by the Gospel; and His Son, who was of the fruit of David's …
For you find God in the Psalms saying to David, "Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy seat." Here then He is the Son of David.
