< Psalms 87 >

1 A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.
مَزْمُورٌ لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. تَسْبِيحَةٌ أَسَّسَ اللهُ الْمَدِينَةَ عَلَى الْجِبَالِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ.١
2 Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob.
أَحَبَّ الرَّبُّ أَبْوَابَ صِهْيَوْنَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مَسَاكِنِ بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ.٢
3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)
يَتَحَدَّثُونَ عَنْكِ بِأُمُورٍ مَجِيدَةٍ يَا مَدِينَةَ اللهِ.٣
4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This one was born there.
أَذْكُرُ مِصْرَ وَبَابِلَ بَيْنَ الَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَنِي، وَكَذَلِكَ فَلَسْطِينَ وَصُورَ مَعَ الْحَبَشَةِ، فَيَقُولُونَ: هَذَا وُلِدَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ.٤
5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.
حَقّاً عَنْ صِهْيَوْنَ يَقُولُونَ: «هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ وَهَذَا الإِنْسَانُ وُلِدَ فِيهَا، وَالْعَلِيُّ يُثَبِّتُهَا».٥
6 Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. (Selah)
يُدَوِّنُ الرَّبُّ فِي سِجِلِّ إِحْصَاءِ الشُّعُوبِ أَنَّ هَذَا وُلِدَ هُنَاكَ.٦
7 They that sing as well as they that dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee.
الْمُرَنِّمُونَ وَالْعَازِفُونَ عَلَى السَّوَاءِ يَقُولُونَ: «فِيكِ كُلُّ يَنَابِيعِ سُرُورِي».٧
