The Lord Will

Psalm 132:4

β€œI will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,”

KJV

Read in Psalm 132

Meaning

The hyperbolic force communicates determination, not a general ascetic rule.

Read carefully

Read Psalm 132:4 inside its literary unit and the whole of Psalm 132; the verse does not support that overclaim.

Reflection

Distinguish focused sacrifice from destructive exhaustion.
