'Favored' in the Bible

You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

Surely those favored by the Lord will possess the land, but those rejected by him will be wiped out.

May his fame endure! May his dynasty last as long as the sun remains in the sky! May they use his name when they formulate their blessings! May all nations consider him to be favored by God!

LORD you have favored your land and restored the fortunes of Jacob.
