Psalms 87

1 A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. He has founded His city on the holy mountains.

Nkunga bana ba Kole. Wutula fondasio andi ku mongo wunlongo.

2 The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

Yave weti zola mielo mi Sioni viokila bibuangu bioso bimvuandanga Yakobi.

3 Glorious things are ascribed to you, O city of God.

Mambu ma nkembo matubu mu diambu diaku; a divula di Nzambi.

4 “I will mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me— along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush — when I say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”

“Ndiela yolukila Lahabi ayi Babiloni muidi bobo banzebi; tsi yi Filisiti ayi Tila va kimosi ayi Kutsi: ayi tuba: mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila”.

5 And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

Buna mu diambu di Sioni; bela tuba: “Mutu wawu ayi mutu wuna, mu niandi babutukila” ayi Nzambi yizangama, niandi wela kumbieka.

6 The LORD will record in the register of the peoples: “This one was born in Zion.”

Yave wela sonika batu mu buku: “mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila.”

7 Singers and pipers will proclaim, “All my springs of joy are in You.”

Bu balembo budi miziki, bela yimbila: “zitho ziama zioso zidi mu ngeyo.”
