1. O Yahweh, remember with regard to David all his affliction.
2. How he swore to Yahweh, he vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
3. “I will not enter into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed,
4. I will give no sleep to my eyes, no slumber to my eyelids,
5. until I find a place for Yahweh, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6. Look, we heard of it in Ephrathah; we found her in the fields of Jaar.
7. Let us go to his dwelling places; Let us worship at his footstool.
8. Arise, O Yahweh, to your resting place, you and your mighty ark.
9. Let your priests clothe themselves with righteousness, and let your faithful sing for joy.
