| 1On the holy mountain stands the city founded by the LORD. | 1A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. He has founded His city on the holy mountains. |
| 2He loves the city of Jerusalem more than any other city in Israel. | 2The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. |
| 3O city of God, what glorious things are said of you! Interlude | 3Glorious things are ascribed to you, O city of God. Selah |
| 4I will count Egypt and Babylon among those who know me— also Philistia and Tyre, and even distant Ethiopia. They have all become citizens of Jerusalem! | 4“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.’” |
| 5Regarding Jerusalem it will be said, “Everyone enjoys the rights of citizenship there.” And the Most High will personally bless this city. | 5And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.” |
| 6When the LORD registers the nations, he will say, “They have all become citizens of Jerusalem.” Interlude | 6The LORD will record in the register of the peoples: “This one was born in Zion.” Selah |
| 7The people will play flutes and sing, “The source of my life springs from Jerusalem!” | 7Singers and pipers will proclaim, “All my springs of joy are in You.” |
