1
A prophetic song, composed by the sons of Korah High upon his hills of holiness stands God’s city.[1]
2
How God loves the gates of Zion, his favorite place on earth.[2]
3
So many glorious things have been proclaimed over Zion, God’s holy city! — Pause in his presence
4
For the Lord says, “Here are the nations who will acknowledge me as God:[3] Egypt,[4] Iraq,[5] Palestine,[6] and the Mediterranean people,[7] even distant Ethiopia. They will all boast, ‘I was born in Zion!’”
5
But over Zion it will be said, “The mighty Man was born there and he will establish it.”[8] For the God Most High will truly bless Jerusalem.
6
And when he counts her citizens, recording them in his registry, he will write by their name: “This one was born again here!” — Pause in his presence
7
And the princes of God’s feasts will sing and dance,[9] singing, “Every fountain of delight springs up from your life within me!”
