Behold ye the Philistines also, and they of Tyre, with the Morians: lo, they shall be counted as born in Sion.

5

As mychione Sion bee eh er ny ghra, dy row eh er ny ruggey ayn-jee: as nee yn Er smoo syrjey ee y niartaghey.

Yea of Sion it shall be reported, This one and that one was born in her: and the most High shall stablish her.

The Lord shall reckon, when he writeth up the peoples: that each one was born in Sion.

The singers also and trumpeters shall make answer: All my fresh springs are in thee.
