13. And he said to me: 'Let your dwelling place be with Jacob, and let your inheritance be in Israel, for you shall take root among my elect.'
14. From the beginning, and before the world, I was created. And even unto the future world, I will not cease to exist. For I have ministered before him in the holy habitation.
15. And in this way, I was established in Zion. And likewise, in the holy city, I found rest. And my authority was in Jerusalem.
16. And I took root among an honorable people, within the portion of my God, within his inheritance. And so my abode is in the full assembly of the saints.
17. I was exalted like a cedar in Lebanon and like a cypress on Mount Zion.
