1 De los hijos de Coré. Salmo. Canto. Esta casa está asentada en el monte santo. 2 El Señor ama las puertas de Sión más que todas las tiendas de Jacob. 3 De ti se dicen cosas gloriosas, ciudad de Dios. Selah 4 «Rahab y Babilonia serán nombradas entre quienes me conocen. Miren a Filistea y Tiro, junto con Etiopía: este nació allí». 5 De Sión se dirá: «Este y aquel nacieron allí»; el Altísimo la afirmará. 6 Cuando el Señor escriba el registro de los pueblos, recordará: «Este nació allí». Selah 7 Allí estarán los músicos, y los que bailan dirán: «Todas mis fuentes están en ti».

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
