2 He swore an oath to the Lord,

he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 “I will not enter my house

or go to my bed,

4 I will allow no sleep to my eyes

or slumber to my eyelids,

5 till I find a place for the Lord,

a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

2 how he swore to the Lord

and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

3 “I will not enter my house

or get into my bed,

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes

or slumber to my eyelids,

5 until I find a place for the Lord,

a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

2 He made a solemn promise to the Lord.

He vowed to the Mighty One of Israel,

3 “I will not go home;

I will not let myself rest.

4 I will not let my eyes sleep

nor close my eyelids in slumber

5 until I find a place to build a house for the Lord,

a sanctuary for the Mighty One of Israel.”

2 How he swore to the Lord,

And vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 “Surely I will not go into the chamber of my house,

Or go up to the comfort of my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes

Or slumber to my eyelids,

5 Until I find a place for the Lord,

A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

2 He made an oath to the Lord,

a promise to the Mighty God of Jacob.

3 He said, “I will not go home to my house,

or lie down on my bed,

4 or close my eyes,

or let myself sleep

5 until I find a place for the Lord.

I want to provide a home for the Mighty God of Jacob.”

2 How he sware unto Jehovah,

And vowed unto the Mighty One 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 Jehovah,

A tabernacle for the Mighty One of Jacob.

2 How he swore unto Jehovah, vowed unto the Mighty One of Jacob: 3 I will not come into the tent of my house, I will not go up to the couch of my bed; 4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, slumber to mine eyelids, 5 Until I find out a place for Jehovah, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob. …

and made this vow to the Mighty One of Jacob: 

3 “I will not step inside my house, 

4 get into my bed, shut my eyes, or close my eyelids 

5 until I find a place for the Lord, 

a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.” 

2 and how he swore an oath to the Lord,

making a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:

3 “I will not enter my house

or get into my bed,

4 I will not allow my eyes to sleep

or my eyelids to slumber

5 until I find a place for the Lord,

a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

2 how he swore to the Lord

and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

3 “I will not enter my house

or get into my bed;

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes

5 until I find a place for the Lord,

a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

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,

5 Until I find a place for the Lord,

A dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
