2  Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion more than all the habitations of Jacob.

3  Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of ° Elohim|strong="H0430"God. Selah.

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

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

6  Jehovah will count, when he inscribeth the peoples, This [man] was born there. Selah.

7 As well the singers as the dancers [shall say], All my springs are in thee.
