¹⁴ This is my rest for ever: here will I ever be; for this is my desire.

¹ The Lord says, Heaven is the seat of my power, and earth is the resting-place for my feet: what sort of house will you make for me, and what place will be my resting-place?

⁸ Come back, O Lord, to your resting-place; you and the ark of your strength.

²³ And the town has no need of the sun, or of the moon, to give it light: for the glory of God did make it light, and the light of it is the Lamb.

²² But you have come to the mountain of Zion, to the place of the living God, to the Jerusalem which is in heaven, and to an army of angels which may not be numbered,

²² In whom you, with the rest, are united together as a living-place of God in the Spirit.

²¹ And he who takes an oath by the Temple, takes it by the Temple and by him whose house it is.

¹⁷ The Lord your God is among you, as a strong saviour: he will be glad over you with joy, he will make his love new again, he will make a song of joy over you as in the time of a holy feast.

²¹ And the Lord will be thundering from Zion, and his voice will be sounding from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will be shaking: but the Lord will be a breastplate for his people and a strong place for the children of Israel.

¹⁵ For this is the word of him who is high and lifted up, whose resting-place is eternal, whose name is Holy: my resting-place is in the high and holy place, and with him who is crushed and poor in spirit, to give life to the spirit of the poor, and to make strong the heart of the crushed.

⁶ Let your voice be sounding in a cry of joy, O daughter of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.

¹⁰ And in that day, the eyes of the nations will be turned to the root of Jesse which will be lifted up as the flag of the peoples; and his resting-place will be glory.

¹⁸ See, I and the children whom the Lord has given me, are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of armies, whose resting-place is in Mount Zion.

²¹ Praise be to the Lord out of Zion, even to the Lord whose house is in Jerusalem, Let the Lord be praised.

² The Lord has more love for the doors of Zion than for all the tents of Jacob.

² In Salem is his tent, his resting-place in Zion.

¹⁸ You have gone up on high, taking your prisoners with you; you have taken offerings from men; the Lord God has taken his place on the seat of his power.

¹⁶ Why are you looking with envy, you high hills, on the hill desired by God as his resting-place? truly, God will make it his house for ever.

²⁷ But is it truly possible that God may be housed on earth? see, heaven and the heaven of heavens are not wide enough to be your resting-place; how much less this house which I have made!

¹³ So I have made for you a living-place, a house in which you may be for ever present.
