'Home' in the Bible

A psalm of David. Lord, who may be a guest in your home? Who may live on your holy hill?

He will surely give me shelter in the day of danger; he will hide me in his home; he will place me on an inaccessible rocky summit.

For the music director; a well-written song by David. It was written when Doeg the Edomite went and informed Saul: "David has arrived at the home of Ahimelech." Why do you boast about your evil plans, O powerful man? God's loyal love protects me all day long!

Yet God will make you a permanent heap of ruins. He will scoop you up and remove you from your home; he will uproot you from the land of the living. (Selah)

I will be a permanent guest in your home; I will find shelter in the protection of your wings. (Selah)

For they have devoured Jacob and destroyed his home.

Even the birds find a home there, and the swallow builds a nest, where she can protect her young near your altars, O Lord who rules over all, my king and my God.

No harm will overtake you; no illness will come near your home.

May his children roam around begging, asking for handouts as they leave their ruined home!

It is vain for you to rise early, come home late, and work so hard for your food. Yes, he can provide for those whom he loves even when they sleep.

He said, "I will not enter my own home, or get into my bed.

Certainly the Lord has chosen Zion; he decided to make it his home.
