The Dwelling Place of God

A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. A SONG.

1  On the holy mount stands the city he founded;
2  the LORD loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
3  Glorious things of you are spoken,
O city of God. Selah

4  Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon;
behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush—
“This one was born there,” they say.
5  And of Zion it shall be said,
“This one and that one were born in her”;
for the Most High himself will establish her.
6  The LORD records as he registers the peoples,
“This one was born there.” Selah

7  Singers and dancers alike say,
“All my springs are in you.”

-Psalm 87
