JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Hebrew Old Testament (Masoretic Text)
1A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.
1לִבְנֵי־קֹ֖רַח מִזְמֹ֣ור שִׁ֑יר יְ֝סוּדָתֹ֗ו בְּהַרְרֵי־קֹֽדֶשׁ׃
2The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
2אֹהֵ֣ב יְ֭הוָה שַׁעֲרֵ֣י צִיֹּ֑ון מִ֝כֹּ֗ל מִשְׁכְּנֹ֥ות יַעֲקֹֽב׃
3Glorious things are spoken of Thee, O city of God. Selah
3נִ֭כְבָּדֹות מְדֻבָּ֣ר בָּ֑ךְ עִ֖יר הָאֱלֹהִ֣ים סֶֽלָה׃
4'I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know Me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.'
4אַזְכִּ֤יר ׀ רַ֥הַב וּבָבֶ֗ל לְֽיֹ֫דְעָ֥י הִנֵּ֤ה פְלֶ֣שֶׁת וְצֹ֣ור עִם־כּ֑וּשׁ זֶ֝֗ה יֻלַּד־שָֽׁם׃
5But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her; and the Most High Himself doth establish her.'
5וּֽלֲצִיֹּ֨ון ׀ יֵאָמַ֗ר אִ֣ישׁ וְ֭אִישׁ יֻלַּד־בָּ֑הּ וְה֖וּא יְכֹונְנֶ֣הָ עֶלְיֹֽון׃
6The LORD shall count in the register of the peoples: 'This one was born there.' Selah
6יְֽהוָ֗ה יִ֭סְפֹּר בִּכְתֹ֣וב עַמִּ֑ים זֶ֖ה יֻלַּד־שָׁ֣ם סֶֽלָה׃
7And whether they sing or dance, all my thoughts are in Thee.
7וְשָׁרִ֥ים כְּחֹלְלִ֑ים כָּֽל־מַעְיָנַ֥י בָּֽךְ׃
