1Remember, O Lord, David all his sufferings,
2the oath that he swore to the Lord, and his vow to the Strong One of Jacob,
3never to enter his tent, never to lie on his bed,
4never to give his eyes sleep or his eyelids slumber,
5till he had found a place for the Lord, for the Strong One of Jacob to live in.
6We heard of it in Ephrathah, in the fields of Jaar we found it.
