Psalm 87:1-7 TLB

[1] High on his holy mountain stands Jerusalem, the city of God, the city he loves more than any other! [3] O city of God, what wondrous tales are told of you! [4] Nowadays when I mention among my friends the names of Egypt and Babylonia, Philistia and Tyre, or even distant Ethiopia, someone boasts that he was born in one or another of those countries. [5] But someday the highest honor will be to be a native of Jerusalem! For the God above all gods will personally bless this city. [6] When he registers her citizens, he will place a check mark beside the names of those who were born here. [7] And in the festivals they'll sing, "All my heart is in Jerusalem."
