On the holy mountain stands the city founded by the LORD.
He loves the city of Jerusalem more than any other city in Israel.
O city of God, what glorious things are said of you!
I will record Egypt and Babylon among those who know me--also Philistia and Tyre, and even distant Ethiopia. They have all become citizens of Jerusalem!
And it will be said of Jerusalem, "Everyone has become a citizen here." And the Most High will personally bless this city.
When the LORD registers the nations, he will say, "This one has become a citizen of Jerusalem."
At all the festivals, the people will sing, "The source of my life is in Jerusalem!"
