Psalm 132:3 in context

1Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:

2How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;

3Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;

4I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,

5Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

Commentary

In these verses we have Solomon's address to God for his favour to him and to his government, and his acceptance of his building a house to God's name. Observe, I. What he pleads - two things: - 1. That what he had done was in pursuance of the pious vow which his father David had made to build a house for God.

— Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on verses 1-10
