1 Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song. This house is resting on the holy mountain.2 The Lord has more love for the doors of Zion than for all the tents of Jacob.3 Noble things are said of you, O town of God. (Selah.)4 Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.5 And of Zion it will be said, This or that man had his birth there; and the Most High will make her strong.6 The Lord will keep in mind, when he is writing the records of the people, that this man had his birth there. (Selah.)7 The players on instruments will be there, and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 Yahweh loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. Selah.

4 I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me.

Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia:

"This one was born there."

5 Yes, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one was born in her;"

the Most High himself will establish her.

6 Yahweh will count, when he writes up the peoples,

"This one was born there." Selah.

7 Those who sing as well as those who dance say,

"All my springs are in you."
