Psalms 87

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

לִבְנֵי־קֹ֖רַח מִזְמֹ֣ור שִׁ֑יר יְ֝סוּדָתֹ֗ו בְּהַרְרֵי־קֹֽדֶשׁ׃

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

אֹהֵ֣ב יְ֭הוָה שַׁעֲרֵ֣י צִיֹּ֑ון מִ֝כֹּ֗ל מִשְׁכְּנֹ֥ות יַעֲקֹֽב׃

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

נִ֭כְבָּדֹות מְדֻבָּ֣ר בָּ֑ךְ עִ֖יר הָאֱלֹהִ֣ים סֶֽלָה׃

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

אַזְכִּ֤יר ׀ רַ֥הַב וּבָבֶ֗ל לְֽיֹ֫דְעָ֥י הִנֵּ֤ה פְלֶ֣שֶׁת וְצֹ֣ור עִם־כּ֑וּשׁ זֶ֝֗ה יֻלַּד־שָֽׁם׃

5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

וּֽלֲצִיֹּ֨ון ׀ יֵאָמַ֗ר אִ֣ישׁ וְ֭אִישׁ יֻלַּד־בָּ֑הּ וְה֖וּא יְכֹונְנֶ֣הָ עֶלְיֹֽון׃

6 YHWH shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. (Selah)

יְֽהוָ֗ה יִ֭סְפֹּר בִּכְתֹ֣וב עַמִּ֑ים זֶ֖ה יֻלַּד־שָׁ֣ם סֶֽלָה׃

7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

וְשָׁרִ֥ים כְּחֹלְלִ֑ים כָּֽל־מַעְיָנַ֥י בָּֽךְ׃
