¹ A Canticle Psalm to the sons of Korah. Its foundations are in the holy mountains:

² the Lord loves the gates of Zion above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

³ Glorious things are being said of you, O City of God.

⁴ I will be mindful of Rahab and of Babylon knowing me. Behold, the foreigners, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians: these have been there.

⁵ Will not Zion say that this man and that man were born in her? And the Most High himself has founded her.

⁶ The Lord will explain, in the writings of peoples and of leaders, about those who have been in her.

⁷ For so the dwelling place within you is with all rejoicing.
