11 The Lord to David sware in truth, And [surely] will not turn from it; Upon the Throne of Majesty, Thy [body's] Off-spring I will set▪
12 My Covenant if thy sons will keep, And Laws which I [to them] make known; ⟨p. 228⟩Their Children also then shall sit For ever on thy [Royal] Throne.
13 For Zion the Lord chosen hath, [And] there to dwell [he] liketh best.
13 For Sion the Lord chosen hath, [And] there to dwell [he] liketh best.
14 This is my chosen dwelling-place, This is my [worship's] fixed rest.
