Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.132.1" class="versetxt"> Canticum graduum David. [Ecce quam bonum et quam jucundum,
habitare fratres in unum!
Sicut unguentum in capite,
quod descendit in barbam, barbam Aaron,
quod descendit in oram vestimenti ejus;
sicut ros Hermon,
qui descendit in montem Sion.
Quoniam illic mandavit Dominus benedictionem,
et vitam usque in sæculum.]

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

give sleep: Genesis 24:33, Ruth 3:18, Proverbs 6:4

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I will not give sleep to mine eyes, [or] slumber to mine eyelids. Not that he never would or did take any sleep till this thing was brought about he had so much at heart; but that he could not and would not suffer himself to sleep comfortably and quietly because of it. Aben Ezra interprets it of sleep at noon; the phrases express his great desire and solicitude to have this affair accomplished, and his eager and diligent pursuit of it; see Proverbs 6:4; of the eager desire of Christ to suffer and die for his people, that they might be brought near to God, and be his dwelling place, see Luke 12:50.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I will not give sleep to mine eyes ... - There is no difference here between the words sleep and slumber. The meaning is, that the house of the Lord should be his first care.
