1His foundation is in the holy mountains.

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

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

4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.

5Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her.

6The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the peoples, this one was born there. Selah

7They that sing as well as they that dance shall say, All my fountains are in thee.
