1 Zvavanakomana vaKora. Pisarema. Rwiyo. Akateya nheyo dzake pagomo dzvene;

2 Jehovha anoda masuo eZioni kupfuura pose panogara Jakobho.

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

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

4 “Ndichanyora nezvaRahabhi neBhabhironi pakati pavanondiziva, neFiristiawo neTire, pamwe chete neEtiopia, uye vachati, ‘Uyu akaberekerwa muZioni.’”

'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.'

5 Zvirokwazvo, pamusoro peZioni vachati, “Uyu nowoyo vakaberekerwamo, uye Wokumusoro-soro pachake acharisimbisa.”

But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her; and the Most High Himself doth establish her.'

The LORD shall count in the register of the peoples: 'This one was born there.' (Selah)

And whether they sing or dance, all my thoughts are in Thee.
