Psalms 87

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

Mazmur kaum Korah, sebuah nyanyian. TUHAN mendirikan kota-Nya di atas bukit-Nya yang suci.

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

Dari semua kota di Israel, Yerusalem yang paling dikasihi-Nya.

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

Dengarlah, hai kota Allah, hal-hal yang menakjubkan dikatakan-Nya tentang engkau:

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.

"Mesir dan Babel akan Kumasukkan dalam daftar bangsa-bangsa yang taat kepada-Ku. Bahkan Filistea, Tirus dan Sudan masuk bilangan penduduk Yerusalem."

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

Kepada Sion orang akan berkata, bahwa semua bangsa termasuk warganya, dan bahwa Yang Mahatinggi akan mengukuhkan dia.

6 The LORD shall count, when he writes up the people, that this man was born there. (Selah)

TUHAN akan memasukkan bangsa-bangsa dalam daftar penduduk Yerusalem.

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

Mereka akan menari dan menyanyi, "Sion adalah tempat asalku!"
