Abraham named that place "The LORD Provides." And even today people say, "On the LORD's mountain he provides."

The people of Judah and of Jerusalem will be rescued and will live in safety. The city will be called 'The LORD Our Salvation.'

Every cooking pot in Jerusalem and in all Judah will be set apart for use in the worship of the LORD Almighty. The people who offer sacrifices will use them for boiling the meat of the sacrifices. When that time comes, there will no longer be any merchant in the Temple of the LORD Almighty.

He said, "If you will obey me completely by doing what I consider right and by keeping my commands, I will not punish you with any of the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians. I am the LORD, the one who heals you."

Moses built an altar and named it "The LORD is my Banner."

Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and named it "The LORD is Peace." (It is still standing at Ophrah, which belongs to the clan of Abiezer.)

God is in that city, and it will never be destroyed; at early dawn he will come to its aid.

God has shown that there is safety with him inside the fortresses of the city.

"This God is our God forever and ever; he will lead us for all time to come."

He goes up to the heights, taking many captives with him; he receives gifts from rebellious people. The LORD God will live there.

Everything you do, O God, is holy. No god is as great as you.

"This is where I will live forever; this is where I want to rule.

Let everyone who lives in Zion shout and sing! Israel's holy God is great, and he lives among his people."

How shall we answer the messengers that come to us from Philistia? We will tell them that the LORD has established Zion and that his suffering people will find safety there.

The moon will grow dark, and the sun will no longer shine, for the LORD Almighty will be king. He will rule in Jerusalem on Mount Zion, and the leaders of the people will see his glory.

When that time comes, Jerusalem will be called 'The Throne of the LORD,' and all nations will gather there to worship me. They will no longer do what their stubborn and evil hearts tell them.

(SEE 3:20)

The LORD said, "Sing for joy, people of Jerusalem! I am coming to live among you!"

I heard a loud voice speaking from the throne: "Now God's home is with people! He will live with them, and they shall be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God.

Nothing that is under God's curse will be found in the city. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will worship him.
