Psalms 78:67-72 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

67. He also rejected the tent of Joseph, And did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,

68. But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which He loved.

69. And He built His sanctuary like the heights, Like the earth which He has founded forever.

70. He also chose David His servant And took him from the sheepfolds;

71. From the care of the ewes with suckling lambs He brought him To shepherd Jacob His people, And Israel His inheritance.

72. So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, And guided them with his skillful hands.
