Question
What is the source of the phrase "Wherever you shall go Jerusalem shall be in your heart and Zion in your prayers": "Lkol Makom Asher Telech Yerushalayim Belevavecha Vetzion Betefilotecha"?
Answer
Various search engines came with no answer; I doubt therefore it comes from a religious source.
In any event it's a nice verse.
There is a similar verse related to Rabbi Nachman of Breslav that says "Wherever I go, I go to the land of Israel"
