² Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

⁶⁷ And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed.

⁶⁸ And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that He loved,

⁶⁹ And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the earth, He founded it to the age.

¹³ For Jehovah hath fixed on Zion, He hath desired `it' for a seat to Himself,

¹⁴ This `is' My rest for ever and ever, Here do I sit, for I have desired it.

⁵ but unto the place which Jehovah your God doth choose out of all your tribes to put His name there, to His tabernacle ye seek, and thou hast entered thither,

³² And what doth one answer the messengers of a nation? `That Jehovah hath founded Zion, And in it do the poor of His people trust!'

³² And it hath come to pass, Every one who calleth in the name of Jehovah is delivered, For in mount Zion and in Jerusalem there is an escape, As Jehovah hath said, And among the remnants whom Jehovah is calling!

⁶ and I fix on Jerusalem for My name being there, and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.
