2The Lord has more love for the doors of Zion than for all the tents of Jacob.

4Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.

4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

4I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This <FI>one<Fi> was born there.

5And of Zion it will be said, This or that man had his birth there; and the Most High will make her strong.

5And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

5And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, doth establish her.

6The Lord will keep in mind, when he is writing the records of the people, that this man had his birth there. (Selah.)

6The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

6Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples, `This <FI>one<Fi> was born there.' Selah.

7The players on instruments will be there, and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.

7As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

7Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains <FI>are<Fi> in Thee!
