1 HER foundations are on his holy mountain. On the holy mount stands the city he founded; Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. A song. He has founded his city on the holy mountain.
2 The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. the LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwelling places of Jacob. The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the other dwellings of Jacob.
3 Glorious things are spoken of you, O city of our God. Glorious things of you are spoken, O city of God. Selah Glorious things are said of you, city of God:
4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon, for they know my power: behold the Philistines and Tyre and the people of Ethiopia; it shall be said this man was born there. Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon; behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush— “This one was born there,” they say. “I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me— Philistia too, and Tyre, along with Cush — and will say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”
5 And of Zion it shall be said, This mighty man was born in her; and the same shall establish her. And of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”; for the Most High himself will establish her. Indeed, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her.”
6 The LORD shall number his people in the book: This man was born there! The LORD records as he registers the peoples, “This one was born there.” Selah The LORD will write in the register of the peoples: “This one was born in Zion.”
7 The princes who dwell in you shall rejoice, and all that are humbled in you. Singers and dancers alike say, “All my springs are in you.” As they make music they will sing, “All my fountains are in you.”
