¹ A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. ON THE holy hills stands the city God founded. ² The Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob (Israel). ³ Glorious things are spoken of you, O city of God. Selah ! ⁴ I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among those who know --behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia (Cush)--, This man was born there. ⁵ Yes, of Zion it shall be said, This man and that man were born in her, for the Most High Himself will establish her. ⁶ The Lord shall count, when He registers the peoples, that this man was born there. Selah ! ⁷ The singers as well as the players on instruments shall say, All my springs (my sources of life and joy) are in you .
