By Korah’s descendants; a psalm; a song.
1 ⌞The city⌟ the Lord has founded ⌞stands⌟ on holy mountains.

4 ⌞The Lord says,⌟ “I will add Egypt and Babylon
as well as Philistia, Tyre, and Sudan
to the list of those who acknowledge me.
Each nation ⌞will claim that it⌟ was born there.”
5But it will be said of Zion,
“Every race is born in it.
The Most High will make it secure.”
6The Lord will record this in the Book of Nations:
“Every race ⌞claims that it⌟ was born there.” Selah
7Singers and dancers will sing,
“Zion is the source of all our blessings.”

1His foundation [is] in holy mountains.
2 Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.
3Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. Selah.
