1 (Of the Bnei Korach. A mizmor. A shir)
On the Harei Kodesh (Holy Mountain) stands His foundation.
2 Hashem loveth the sha'arei Tziyon
more than all the mishkenot Ya'akov.
3 Glorious things are spoken of thee,
O Ir HaElohim.
Selah
4 To them that know me, I will make mention of Rachav and Babylon;
hinei, Philistia, and Tzor, with Ethiopia:
this man was born there.
5 But of Tziyon it shall be said,
This one and that one were born in her;
and Elyon Himself shall establish it.
6 Hashem shall register, when He writeth up the people,
that this one was born there.
Selah
7 The sharim (ones singing) as well as the cholelim (players on instruments) shall be there;
all my fountains are in thee.
