  3. God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
  4. For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
  5. They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
  6. Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
  7. Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
  8. As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

  13. Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
  14. For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

How these connections are counted

Sources. Scripture text is the King James Version (public domain). Hebrew is the Westminster Leningrad Codex (public domain) with STEPBible tagging and lexicon data (CC BY 4.0). Old Testament cross references come from OpenBible.info (CC BY). Connections come from the scripture links in every general conference talk from April 2000 through October 2026, plus scripture lists in Weak Things sketch notes for selected apostles’ talks from 1971–1999. Latter-day Saint scholarship, other Christian commentaries, Jewish interpretation and historical sources are labeled separately.

Distinct talks, not mentions. Each talk counts once per verse. Badges show whether the talk cites this exact verse or a passage that includes it, and whether the link is in a footnote or the talk text. Frequency is not a measure of doctrinal importance.

Your own words, their link. Summaries are Weak Things’ own. Talk text is not reproduced; every card links to the original talk on the Church’s site. This independent study tool does not speak for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
