A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David, and all his afflictions:
2
How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
3
Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
4
I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
5
Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
