Psalms 87

1 Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song. His foundation is in the mountains of holiness.

Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Oluyimba. Atadde emisingi gye ku lusozi olutukuvu.

2 Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion more than all the habitations of Jacob.

Mukama ayagala emiryango gya Sayuuni okusinga ennyumba zonna eza Yakobo.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

Ebintu eby’ekitiibwa bikwogerwako, ggwe ekibuga kya Katonda.

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon among them that know me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: this [man] was born there.

“Mu mawanga ge mmanyi mwe muli Lakabu, ne Babulooni; era ndyogera ku Bufirisuuti, ne ku Ttuulo ne ku Esiyopya nti, ‘Ono yazaalirwa mu Sayuuni.’”

5 And of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her.

Bwe baliba boogera ku Sayuuni baligamba nti, “Ono n’oli baazaalirwa omwo,” n’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo alikinyweza.

6 Jehovah will count, when he inscribeth the peoples, This [man] was born there. (Selah)

Mukama aliwandiika mu kitabo bw’ati, omuli amannya g’abantu nti, “Ono yazaalibwa omwo.”

7 As well the singers as the dancers [shall say], All my springs are in thee.

Banaakubanga ebivuga nga bwe bayimba nti, “Ensulo zange zonna ziri mu ggwe.”
