Exodus15:13, 17 (KJ21)

Thou in Thy mercy hast led forth the people whom Thou hast redeemed; Thou hast guided them in Thy strength unto Thy holy habitation...Thou shalt bring them in and plant them in the mountain of Thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which Thou hast made for Thee to dwell in, in the sanctuary, O Lord, which Thy hands have established.

Exodus15:13, 17 (NAS)

In Thy lovingkindness Thou hast led the people whom Thou hast redeemed; In Thy strength Thou hast guided them to Thy holy habitation...Thou wilt bring them and plant them in the mountain of Thine inheritance, The place, O LORD, which Thou hast made for Thy dwelling, The sanctuary, O Lord, which Thy hands have established.

Exodus15:13, 17 (NIVUS)
In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling...You will bring them in and plant them on the mountain of your inheritance— the place, O LORD, you made for your dwelling, the sanctuary, O Lord, your hands established.

Exodus15:13, 17 (NLT)
With unfailing love you will lead this people whom you have ransomed. You will guide them in your strength to the place where your holiness dwells...You will bring them in and plant them on your own mountain—the place you have made as your home, O LORD, the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hands have made

The Lord God Almighty, who is kind, merciful, good and faithful, is the One who has taken away our reproach and shame. He leads and guides His own chosen people out of dark places into His light. Jehovah has redeemed and ransomed us. He has made us His kin, adopting us into His family.

He leads us to a place of rest, where there is plenty of water to refresh us. He brings us to the goal that He has already planned for us, but He takes us to that place in stages, so that we are not overwhelmed.

His strength helps us to prevail and He makes us stand firm and strong in Him. He brings us into His holy place, a place that is set apart and separate from anything in the world. He has consecrated and sanctified us for Himself. He is devoted to us and dedicated to our salvation. He has brought us into His beautiful home and we will dwell in rest with Him forever.

He has brought us near, carrying us into His holy mountain. There He has planted and established us. We belong to Him and are part of His inheritance, which is valuable and precious to Him. He has put us in a place that has a firm foundation. We are secure and well provisioned.

We abide in the Lord Jehovah's sanctuary, in His temple. There we endure and remain stable; for He has restored us.
