Bible in Basic English
1This house is resting on the holy mountain.
2The Lord has more love for the doors of Zion than for all the tents of Jacob.
3Noble things are said of you, O town of God. (Selah.)
4Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.
5And of Zion it will be said, This or that man had his birth there; and the Most High will make her strong.
6The Lord will keep in mind, when he is writing the records of the people, that this man had his birth there. (Selah.)
7The players on instruments will be there, and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.
Reina-Valera 1909
1A los hijos de Coré: Salmo: Canción. SU cimiento es en montes de santidad.
2Ama Jehová las puertas de Sión más que todas las moradas de Jacob.
3Cosas ilustres son dichas de ti, ciudad de Dios. (Selah.)
4Yo me acordaré de Rahab y de Babilonia entre los que me conocen: he aquí Palestina, y Tiro, con Etiopía: éste nació allá.
5Y de Sión se dirá: Este y aquél han nacido en ella; y fortificarála el mismo Altísimo.
6Jehová contará cuando se escribieren los pueblos: Este nació allí. (Selah.)
7Y cantores y tañedores en ella dirán: Todas mis fuentes estarán en ti.
King James Version

3Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
5And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.
6The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.
7As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
