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."
