Psalm 87:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² He loves the city of Zion
    more than all the other places
    where the people of Jacob live.
³ City of God,
    the Lord says glorious things about you.
⁴ He says, “I will include Egypt and Babylon
    in a list of nations who recognize me as king.
I will also include Philistia and Tyre, along with Cush.
    I will say about them, ‘They were born in Zion.’ ”
