Psalms 87

1 A Psalm [or] Song for the sons of Korah. His foundation [is] in the holy mountains.

Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Hundeen magaalaa isaa tulluu qulqulluu irra jira.

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

Waaqayyo iddoo jireenya Yaaqoob hunda caalaa, karrawwan Xiyoon jaallata.

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

Yaa magaalaa Waaqaa, waaʼee keetiif wanni kabajamaan akkana jedhamee ni dubbatama:

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.

“Ani Raʼaabii fi Baabilonin warra na beekan gidduutti maqaa nan dhaʼa; kunoo, Filisxeemii fi Xiiroos Itoophiyaa wajjin, ‘Namichi kun achitti dhalate’ jedhu.”

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

Dhugumaan waaʼee Xiyoon, “Inni kunii fi inni sun ishee keessatti dhalatan; Waaqni Waan Hunda Olii mataan isaa iyyuu ishee dhaaba” jedhama.

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

Waaqayyo yeroo saboota galmeessutti, “Namichi kun achitti dhalate” jedhee barreessa.

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

Warri faarfatanii fi warri meeshaa muuziiqaa taphatan, “Burqaan koo hundi si keessatti argama” jedhu.
