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

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.
I will mention Rahab and Babylon, to them who know me—Lo! Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia, This one was born there.
5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her.
But, of Zion, it shall be said—This man and that were born in her, And the Highest himself shall establish her.
6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the peoples, this one was born there. (Selah)
Yahweh, will record, when he enrolleth the peoples, This one was born there. (Selah)
7 They that sing as well as they that dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee.
As well the singers as the flute-players [are saying], —All my springs, are in thee!
