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.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.
