Daughter of Zion….

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

— Psalm 22:4

The Psalm of the Cross

…3Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel. 4In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them. 5They cried out to You and were set free; they trusted in You and were not disappointed.…

And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them; because they put their trust in him.

And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

And He led them on safely, so that they did not fear; But the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.

Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.

Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.

And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee:

I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.

— Genesis 2:10

Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master’s brethren.

The two pillars,

The two bowls of the chapiters that were on the top of the two pillars;

the two networks, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters which were upon the top of the pillars;

four hundred pomegranates for the two networks,

even two rows of pomegranates for one network,

to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that were upon the pillars;

the ten bases, and ten lavers on the bases;

one sea,

twelve oxen under the sea;

the pots,

The shovels,

the basons:

all these vessels,

which Hiram made to king Solomon for the 🏡 of the LORD,

were of bright brass.

— 1 Kings 7:41-45
