What portion

We have no portion in David,
no inheritance in Jesse’s son.
Each man to his tent, Israel!

When all Israel saw that the king had not listened to them, the people answered him:

What portion do we have in David?
We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse.
Israel, return to your tents;
David, now look after your own house!

So Israel went to their tents,
