Psalms 87

Psalm 87

Of the Korahites, a psalm. A song.

1 On the holy mountain stands
the city he founded.
2 The Lord loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
3 Glorious things he is speaking of you,
you city of God. (Selah)

4 “Among those who are mine I name Rahab and Babylon,
Philistia, Tyre, Ethiopia,
their people will say I was born in Zion.
5 As for Zion it will be said
each and all were born in her.”
The Lord will preserve her.

6 The Lord shall count, when enrolling the peoples,
“This one was born there, and that one was born there.” (Selah)
7 Singers and dancers alike will say
“All my springs are in you.”
