² Yahweh loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

⁶⁷ Moreover he rejected the tent of Joseph, And didn't choose the tribe of Ephraim,

⁶⁸ But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which he loved.

⁶⁹ He built his sanctuary like the heights, Like the earth which he has established forever.

¹³ For Yahweh has chosen Zion. He has desired it for his habitation.

¹⁴ "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.

⁵ But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation shall you seek, and there you shall come;

³² What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of his people take refuge.

³² It will happen that whoever will call on the name of Yahweh shall be saved; For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, As Yahweh has said, And among the remnant, those whom Yahweh calls.

⁶ but I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.
