1 Koorahilaisten virsi, laulu. Pyhille vuorille perustamaansa kaupunkia,

2 Siionin portteja, Herra rakastaa enemmän kuin Jaakobin kaikkia muita asuinsijoja.

3 On kunniakasta, mitä sinusta sanotaan, sinä Jumalan kaupunki: -Sela. -

4 Minä mainitsen tunnustajikseni Rahabin ja Baabelin; katso, Filisteasta, Tyyrosta ja Etiopiasta minä mainitsen: Sekin on syntynyt siellä.

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion

More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. [Selah

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me:

Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia:

This one was born there.

5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her;

And the Most High himself will establish her.

6 Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples,

This one was born there. [Selah

7 They that sing as well as they that dance shall say,

All my fountains are in thee.
