1 The city he foundedB is on the holy mountains.p

2 The Lord loves Zion’s city gates

more than all the dwellings of Jacob.q

3 Glorious things are said about you,

city of God.r

4 “I will make a record of those who know me:

Rahab, Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Cush—

each one was born there.”s

5 And it will be said of Zion,

“This one and that one were born in her.”

The Most High himself will establish her.t

6 When he registers the peoples,

the Lord will record,

“This one was born there.”u
