Psalms 87

The Privileges of Citizenship in Zion.

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song.

1 His afoundation is in the holy mountains.
2 The Lord bloves the gates of Zion
More than all the other dwelling places of Jacob.
3 cGlorious things are spoken of you,
dCity of God. Selah
4 “I shall mention
I.e., Egypt, as a sea monster; not to be confused with Rahab in Joshua 2
,
fRahab and Babylon
Or as
among those who know Me;
Behold, Philistia and hTyre with
Or Ethiopia
,
jCush:
This one was born there.’”
5 But of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one were born in her”;
And the Most High Himself will kestablish her.
6 The Lord will count when He lregisters the peoples,
This one was born there.” Selah
7 Then those who msing as well as those who
Or dance
,
oplay the flutes will say,
“All my psprings of joy are in you.”
