Lexham English Bible
44 The tabernacle of the testimony belonged[a] to our fathers in the wilderness, just as the one who spoke to Moses directed him[b] to make it according to the design that he had seen, 45 and which, after[c] receiving it[d] in turn, our fathers brought in with Joshua when they dispossessed the[e] nations that God drove out from the presence of our fathers, until the days of David, 46 who found favor in the sight of God and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.[f]
