The Lord Has Chosen Zion

¹³ For the Lord has _t chosen Zion;
he has _u desired it for his dwelling place:
¹⁴ "This is my _v resting place forever;
here I will _w dwell, for I have desired it.
¹⁵ I will abundantly _x bless her provisions;
I will _y satisfy her poor with bread.
¹⁶ Her _z priests I will clothe with salvation,
and her _z saints will shout for joy.
¹⁷ There I will make _a a horn to sprout for David;
I have prepared _b a lamp for _c my anointed.
¹⁸ His enemies I will _d clothe with shame,
but on him his crown will shine."
