The city built by Enoch and his people that was eventually taken to heaven because of righteousness was named Zion (D&C 38: 4; Moses 7: 18-21, 69). In the latter-days a city named Zion will be built near Jackson County, Missouri (United States of America), to which the tribes of Israel will gather (D&C 103: 11-22; 133: 18). The Saints are counseled to build up Zion wherever they are living in the world.

The city of David was called Zion, 1 Kgs. 8: 1. Out of Zion shall go forth the law, Isa. 2: 2-3 (Micah 4: 2; 2 Ne. 12: 2-3). The Redeemer shall come to Zion, Isa. 59: 20. I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion, Jer. 3: 14. In mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, Joel 2: 32 (Obad. 1: 17). Blessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion, 1 Ne. 13: 37. The daughters of Zion are haughty, 2 Ne. 13: 16 (Isa. 3: 16). Wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion! 2 Ne. 28: 19-25.

The New Jerusalem shall be called Zion, D&C 45: 66-67. Independence, Missouri, is the place for the city of Zion, D&C 57: 1-3. A scourge remaineth upon the children of Zion until they repent, D&C 84: 58. The Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, Moses 7: 18-19.
