'Mount Zion' in the Bible

Fair and beautiful in elevation, the joy of all the earth,Is Mount Zion [the City of David] in the far north,The city of the great King.

Let Mount Zion be glad,Let the daughters of Judah rejoiceBecause of Your [righteous] judgments.

Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old,Which You have redeemed to be the tribe of Your inheritance;Remember Mount Zion, where You have dwelt.

But He chose the tribe of Judah [as Israel’s leader],Mount Zion, which He loved [to replace Shiloh as His capital].

I will lift up my eyes to the hills [of Jerusalem]—From where shall my help come?

Those who trust in and rely on the Lord [with confident expectation]Are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but remains forever.
