A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song.

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."

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to those that know me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this [one] was born there.

5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man were born in her; and the highest himself shall establish her.

6 The LORD shall count when he writes up the peoples that this [one] was born there. Selah.

7 And singers and players on instruments [in her shall say]: all my springs [are] in thee.:
