## 📜 Scripture Text (NET)
(The NET Bible: New English Translation. Biblical Studies Press, 2005)
#### Written by the Korahites; a psalm, a song.
[[#Verse 01.]] The Lord’s city is in the holy hills.
[[#Verse 02.]] The Lord loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
[[#Verse 03.]]Â People say wonderful things about you,
O city of God. (Selah)
[[#Verse 04.]] I mention Rahab and Babylon to my followers.
Here are Philistia and Tyre, along with Ethiopia.
It is said of them, “This one was born there.”
[[#Verse 05.]] But it is said of Zion’s residents,
“Each one of these was born in her,
and the Most High makes her secure.”
[[#Verse 06.]] The Lord writes in the census book of the nations,
“This one was born there.” (Selah)
[[#Verse 07.]] As for the singers, as well as the pipers—
all of them sing within your walls.
