1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 LORD loves 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 those who know me. Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This [man] was born there.

5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, this and that man was born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her.

6 LORD will count when he writes up the peoples: This [man] was born there. Selah.

7 Those who sing as well as those who dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee.
