Lord, remember David and all his trouble; How he sware unto the Lord and vowed a vow unto the Almighty God of Jacob; I will not come within the tabernacle of mine house nor climb up into my bed; I will not suffer mine eyes to sleep, nor mine eyelids to slumber : neither the temples of my head to take any rest; Until I find out a place for the temple of the Lord : an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob. Lo, we heard of the same at Ephrata: and found it in the wood. We will go into his tabernacle and fall low on our knees before his footstool. |
