7
I looked everywhere for a place to settle, some part of the world to make my home.
8
Then my Creator, who created the universe, told me where I was to live. "Make your home in Israel,' he said. "The descendants of Jacob will be your people.'
9
He created me in eternity, before time began, and I will exist for all eternity to come.
10
I served him in the Sacred Tent and then made my home on Mount Zion.
11
He settled me in the Beloved City and gave me authority over Jerusalem.
