O city of God. Selah

4I will recordc those who know me

in Rahabd and Babylon,

behold in Philistia and Tyre with Cush,

“This one was born there.”

5But with respect to Zion it shall be said,

“Each onee was born in her,”

for the Most High himself will establish her.

6Yahweh will record in writing the peoples,

“This one was born there.” Selah

7And while dancing, singers will sing,

“All my springs are in you.”
