Remember your people whom you acquired in ancient times, whom you rescued so they could be your very own nation, as well as Mount Zion, where you dwell!

He chose the tribe of Judah, and Mount Zion, which he loves.

Even before the mountains came into existence, or you brought the world into being, you were the eternal God.

The mountains melt like wax before the Lord, before the Lord of the whole earth.

Praise the Lord our God! Worship on his holy hill, for the Lord our God is holy!

as the mountains rose up, and the valleys went down – to the place you appointed for them.

A song of ascents. I look up toward the hills. From where does my help come?

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion; it cannot be upended and will endure forever.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, now and forevermore.

He covers the sky with clouds, provides the earth with rain, and causes grass to grow on the hillsides.

The Beloved about Her Lover: Listen! My lover is approaching! Look! Here he comes, leaping over the mountains, bounding over the hills!

The Beloved to Her Lover: Make haste, my beloved! Be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.

This very day, standing in Nob, they shake their fist at Daughter Zion’s mountain – at the hill of Jerusalem.

Send rams as tribute to the ruler of the land, from Sela in the desert to the hill of Daughter Zion.

All you who live in the world, who reside on the earth, you will see a signal flag raised on the mountains; you will hear a trumpet being blown.

“For a remnant will leave Jerusalem; survivors will come out of Mount Zion. The intense devotion of the Lord who commands armies will accomplish this.

Every valley must be elevated, and every mountain and hill leveled. The rough terrain will become a level plain, the rugged landscape a wide valley.

Let the desert and its cities shout out, the towns where the nomads of Kedar live! Let the residents of Sela shout joyfully; let them shout loudly from the mountaintops.

I will make the trees on the mountains and hills wither up; I will dry up all their vegetation. I will turn streams into islands, and dry up pools of water.

On every high, elevated hill you prepare your bed; you go up there to offer sacrifices.
