1 Salimo la Ana a Kora. Iye wakhazikitsa maziko ake pa phiri loyera;

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. He has founded His city on the holy mountains.

2 Yehova amakonda zipata za Ziyoni kupambana malo onse okhalamo a Yakobo.

The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Za ulemerero wako zimakambidwa, Iwe mzinda wa Mulungu: (Sela)

Glorious things are ascribed to you, O city of God.

4 “Ndidzanena za Rahabe ndi Babuloni pakati pa iwo amene amandidziwa. Dzikonso la Filisitiya, Turo pamodzi ndi Kusi, ndipo ndidzati, ‘Uyu anabadwira mʼZiyoni.’”

“I will mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me— along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush — when I say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”

5 Ndithudi, za Ziyoni adzanena kuti, “Uyu ndi uyo anabadwira mwa iye, ndipo Wammwambamwamba adzakhazikitsa iyeyo.”

And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

6 Yehova adzalemba mʼbuku la kawundula wa anthu a mitundu ina: “Uyu anabadwira mʼZiyoni.” (Sela)

The LORD will record in the register of the peoples: “This one was born in Zion.”

7 Oyimba ndi ovina omwe adzati, “Akasupe anga onse ali mwa iwe.”
