Psalms 87

1 A Psalme or song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God layde his foundations among the holy mountaines.

Korah ƒe viwo ƒe ha. Eɖo eƒe agunu anyi ɖe to Kɔkɔe la dzi.

2 The Lord loueth the gates of Zion aboue all the habitations of Iaakob.

Yehowa lɔ̃ Zion ƒe agbowo wu Yakob ƒe nɔƒewo katã.

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

O! Mawu ƒe du, wogblɔ nu nyui geɖewo tso ŋuwò. (Sela)

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babel among them that knowe me: beholde Palestina and Tyrus with Ethiopia, There is he borne.

“Maŋlɔ Rahab kple Babilon ƒe ŋkɔ ɖe ame siwo nyam la dome, nenema kee nye Filistia kple Tiro hekpe ɖe Kus ŋuti, magblɔ be, ‘Wodzi esia le Zion.’”

5 And of Zion it shall be sayde, Many are borne in her: and he, euen the most High shall stablish her.

Vavã, woagblɔ le Zion ŋu be, “Wodzi esia kple ekemɛ le afi ma, eye Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ŋutɔ aɖo egɔme anyi.”

6 The Lord shall count, when hee writeth the people, He was borne there. (Selah)

Yehowa aŋlɔ ɖe dukɔwo ƒe agbalẽ me be, “Wodzi esia le Zion.” (Sela)

7 Aswell the singers as the players on instruments shall prayse thee: all my springs are in thee.

Ne wole ha dzim la, woadzi ha be, “Nye agunuwo katã le mewò.”
