Zion

Jehovah will send forth the rod of thy strength out of Zion: Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

When Jehovah brought back those that returned to Zion, We were like unto them that dream.

Jehovah bless thee out of Zion: And see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

Let them be put to shame and turned backward, All they that hate Zion.

For Jehovah hath chosen Zion; He hath desired it for his habitation.

Like the dew of Hermon, That cometh down upon the mountains of Zion: For there Jehovah commanded the blessing, Even life for evermore.

Jehovah bless thee out of Zion; Even he that made heaven and earth.

Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.

By the rivers of Babylon, There we sat down, yea, we wept, When we remembered Zion.

For there they that led us captive required of us songs, And they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.

Jehovah will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye Jehovah.

Praise Jehovah, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon, With the crown wherewith his mother hath crowned him In the day of his espousals, And in the day of the gladness of his heart.

And the daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.

Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her converts with righteousness.

And many peoples shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

Moreover Jehovah said, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet;

therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and Jehovah will lay bare their secret parts.

And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem;

when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof, by the spirit of justice, and by the spirit of burning.

Therefore thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian, though he smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

This very day shall he halt at Nob: he shaketh his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

Cry aloud and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion; for great in the midst of thee is the Holy One of Israel.

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