Salme 87

1 Af Koras Sønner. En Salme. En Sang. Sin Stad, grundfæstet paa hellige Bjerge, har HERREN kær,

By sons of Korah. — A Psalm, a song. His foundation [is] in holy mountains.

2 Zions Porte fremfor alle Jakobs Boliger.

Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

3 Der siges herlige Ting om dig, du Guds Stad. (Sela)

Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. (Selah)

4 Jeg nævner Rahab og Babel blandt dem, der kender HERREN, Filisterland, Tyrus og Kusj: en fødtes her, en anden der.

I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] was born there.

5 Men Zion kalder man Moder, der fødtes enhver, den Højeste holder det selv ved Magt.

And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, doth establish her.

6 HERREN tæller efter i Folkeslagenes Liste, en fødtes her, en anden der. (Sela)

Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples, 'This [one] was born there.' (Selah)

7 Syngende og dansende siger de: »Alle mine Kilder er i dig!«

Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains [are] in Thee!
