With a wind from the east You wrecked the ships of Tarshish. Begin Abide·

As we have heard, so we have seen in the city of the LORD of Hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish her forever. Selah Begin Abide·

Mount Zion is glad, the daughters of Judah rejoice, on account of Your judgments. Begin Abide·

consider her ramparts, tour her citadels, that you may tell the next generation. Begin Abide·
