Psalms 87

1 A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

Zaburi mar yawuot Kora. Wer. Oseguro mise mare ewi got maler;

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

Jehova Nyasaye ohero rangeye mag Sayun, moloyo kuonde dak duto mag Jakobo.

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

Ji wacho gik madongo kuomi, yaye dala maduongʼ mar Nyasaye: (Sela)

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.'

“Abiro kwano Rahab gi Babulon e kanyakla mar joma ongʼeya, nyaka Filistia bende, kod Turo, kaachiel gi Kush kendo abiro wacho ni, ‘Ngʼatni nonywol ei Sayun.’”

5 But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her; and the Most High Himself doth establish her.'

Adier, nowachi kuom Sayun niya, “En min ogendini mathoth, kendo Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo owuon biro chunge.”

6 The LORD shall count in the register of the peoples: 'This one was born there.' (Selah)

Jehova Nyasaye biro ndiko e kitabu mindikoe nying ogendini kama: “Jali nonywol ei Sayun.” (Sela)

7 And whether they sing or dance, all my thoughts are in Thee.

Sa ma giloso wer to giniwer niya, “Soknina duto ni e iyi.”
