Psalm 78:67-69

International Children’s Bible

⁶⁷ But God rejected the family of Joseph.
    He did not choose the tribe of Ephraim.
⁶⁸ Instead, he chose the tribe of Judah
    and Mount Zion, which he loves.
⁶⁹ And he built his Temple high like the mountains.
    Like the earth, he built it to last forever.
