Psalm 132:13

The Scriptures 1998

For יהוה has chosen Tsiyon, He has desired it for His dwelling:

See the chapter Copy

But you have drawn near to Mount Tsiyon and to the city of the living Elohim, to the heavenly Yerushalayim, to myriads of messengers,

יהוה loves the gates of Tsiyon More than all the dwellings of Yaʽ

O mountain of peaks, why do you gaze in envy At the mountain which Elohim desired to dwell in; יהוה even dwells there forever.

And what does one answer the messengers of a nation? “That יהוה has founded Tsiyon, and the poor of His people take refuge in it.”

“Only, I shall not tear away all the reign but give one tribe to your son for the sake of my servant Dawiḏ

“And now, I have chosen and set this house apart for My Name to be there forever. And My eyes and My heart shall always be there.

Who is among you of all His people? His Elohim be with him! And let him go up to Yerushalayim, which is in Yehuḏ

For He remembers the seekers of bloodshed, He does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
