A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song. ¹ His foundation is in the holy mountains. ² The LORD loves the gates of Zion
More than all the other dwelling places of Jacob. ³ Glorious things are spoken of you,
O city of God. Selah. ⁴ “I shall mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me;
Behold, Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia:
‘This one was born there.’” ⁵ But of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”;
And the Most High Himself will establish her. ⁶ The LORD will count when He registers the peoples,
“This one was born there.” Selah. ⁷ Then those who sing as well as those who play the flutes shall say,
“All my springs of joy are in you.”
