< Psalms 87 >
1 For the sons of Core, a psalm of a canticle. The foundations thereof are in the holy mountains:
詠【萬民的母親熙雍】 科辣黑子孫的詩歌。 上主喜愛自己的宮殿,是建在一切的聖山。
2 The Lord loveth the gates of Sion above all the tabernacles of Jacob.
祂喜愛所有的城門,勝過雅各伯所有的帳棚。
3 Glorious things are said of thee, O city of God.
天主的聖城!人們論到您,曾經說了許多光榮的事; (休止)
4 I will be mindful of Rahab and of Babylon knowing me. Behold the foreigners, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians, these were there.
我要將辣哈布和巴比倫,列於認識我者的人群中:連培勒舍特、提洛和雇民,這些人都是在您那裏出生。
5 Shall not Sion say: This man and that man is born in her? and the Highest himself hath founded her.
論到熙雍,人要稱她為母親,人人都是在她那裏出生;至高者要親自使她堅。
6 The Lord shall tell in his writings of peoples and of princes, of them that have been in her.
上主要在萬民戶籍上留名:這些人也都是在那裏出生。 (休止)
7 The dwelling in thee is as it were of all rejoicing.
人們要在舞蹈時唱歌說:我的一切泉榞都在您內。
