3City of God, wonderful things are said about you.Selah

4God says, "I will put Egypt and Babylonia on the list of nations that know me. People from Philistia, Tyre, and Cush will be born there."

6The Lord will keep a list of the nations. He will note, "This person was born there."Selah

7They will dance and sing, "All good things come from Jerusalem." A song. A psalm of the sons of Korah.
