Psalm 87:4-6

Contemporary English Version

⁴ Egypt,^[a] Babylonia, Philistia,
    Phoenicia,^[b] and Ethiopia^[c]
are some of those nations
    that know you,
and their people all say,
    “I was born in Zion.”

⁵ God Most High will strengthen
    the city of Zion.
Then everyone will say,
    “We were born here too.”
⁶ The Lord will make a list
    of his people,
and all who were born here
    will be included.
