1 و َضَعَ اللهُ أساسَها فِي سِلسِلَةِ الجِبالِ المُقَدَّسَةِ.

His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 ي َحِبُّ اللهُ بَوّاباتِ صِهْيَوْنَ، أكثَرَ مِنْ كُلِّ مُدُنِ إسرائِيلَ الأُخرَى.

The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 ي ا مَدِينَةَ اللهِ، يَقُوُلُ فِيكِ النّاسُ أشياءَ بَدِيعَةً. سِلاهْ

Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.

4 أ ذْكُرُ مِصرَ وَبابِلَ مِنْ بَينِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي تَعرِفُنِي. أذْكُرُ الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي فِلَسطِينَ وَصُورَ وَكُوشَ.

I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

5 ه َذا وَذاكَ يَقُولانِ إنَّهُما وُلِدا فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، المَدِينَةِ الَّتِي بَناها اللهُ العَلِيُّ.

And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

6 ع ِندَ اللهِ سِجِلّاتٌ لِشَعبِهِ، فَيَعرِفُ أينَ وُلِدَ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنهُمْ. سِلاهْ

The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

7 س َيَرقُصُونَ وَيُغَنُّونَ وَيَقُولُونَ: «مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ تَأتِي كُلُّ الخَيراتِ.»

As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
