“ Suppose a Levite chooses to move from his town in Israel, wherever he is living, to the place the Lord chooses for worship.

“利未人无论寄居在以色列中的哪一座城，若从那里出来，一心愿意到耶和华所选择的地方，

“利未人若离开他在以色列中所居住的任何一座城，一心愿意到耶和华所选择的地方，

“利未人若离开他在以色列中所居住的任何一座城，一心愿意到耶和华所选择的地方，

“以色列境内任何地方的利未人若愿意离开自己所住的城，去耶和华选定的地方，

“如果有住在以色列中任何一座城里的利未人，离开了那里，一心一意到耶和华选择的地方去，

「利未人無論寄居在以色列中的哪一座城，若從那裏出來，一心願意到耶和華所選擇的地方，

「利未人若離開他在以色列中所居住的任何一座城，一心願意到耶和華所選擇的地方，

「利未人若離開他在以色列中所居住的任何一座城，一心願意到耶和華所選擇的地方，

「以色列境內任何地方的利未人若願意離開自己所住的城，去耶和華選定的地方，

“如果有住在以色列中任何一座城裡的利未人，離開了那裡，一心一意到耶和華選擇的地方去，

『若有利未人、無論寄居在以色列中的哪一座城，他從那裏一心一意地來到永恆主所要選擇的地方，

如有利未人離其所居以色列之邑、一心願至耶和華所選之處、

如有利未人、曾旅於以色列族眾邑之中、厥後離彼、一心欲詣耶和華特簡之室、

利未人素居爾數邑中、如有利未人離所居之邑、無論以色列何邑、其心願至主所選之處、

If a Levite moves from one of your towns anywhere in Israel where he is living, and comes in all earnestness to the place the Lord will choose,

Sometimes a Levite will move from the town in Israel where he’s living. And he will come to the place the Lord will choose. He’ll do it because he really wants to.

“ And if a Levite comes from any of your towns out of all Israel, where he lives— and he may come when he desires— to the place that the Lord will choose,

When a Levite leaves one of your towns in Israel where he was staying and wants to go to the place the LORD chooses,

“ Now if a Levite comes from any of your towns throughout Israel where he resides, and he comes whenever he desires to the place which the Lord chooses,

“ So if a Levite comes from any of your gates, from where he dwells among all Israel, and comes with all the desire of his mind to the place which the Lord chooses,

And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourneth, and come with all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah shall choose;

When a Levite leaves one of your towns where he lives in Israel and wants to go to the place the Lord chooses,

And if a Levite come from any of thy gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned, and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which the LORD shall choose;

Suppose a Levite comes by his own free will from one of your villages, from any part of Israel where he is living, to the place the LORD chooses

If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel where he lives, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which Yahweh shall choose,

“ Command the people of Israel to give to the Levites from their property certain towns to live in, along with the surrounding pasturelands.These towns will be for the Levites to live in, and the surrounding lands will provide pasture for their cattle, flocks, and other livestock.

Rather, you must seek the Lord your God at the place of worship he himself will choose from among all the tribes— the place where his name will be honored.

What joy for those whose strength comes from the Lord, who have set their minds on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.

O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water.I have seen you in your sanctuary and gazed upon your power and glory.

Your Passover sacrifice may be from either the flock or the herd, and it must be sacrificed to the Lord your God at the designated place of worship— the place he chooses for his name to be honored.

A single day in your courts is better than a thousand anywhere else! I would rather be a gatekeeper in the house of my God than live the good life in the homes of the wicked.

The one thing I ask of the Lord— the thing I seek most— is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections and meditating in his Temple.

Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly— not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God.

This is a trustworthy saying:“ If someone aspires to be a church leader, he desires an honorable position.”

I love your sanctuary, Lord, the place where your glorious presence dwells.
