Psalms 87

1 A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. A SONG. His foundation [is] in holy mountains.

לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח מִזְמוֹר שִׁיר יְסוּדָתוֹ בְּהַרְרֵי־קֹֽדֶשׁ׃

2 YHWH is loving the gates of Zion Above all the dwelling places of Jacob.

אֹהֵב יְהוָה שַׁעֲרֵי צִיּוֹן מִכֹּל מִשְׁכְּנוֹת יַעֲקֹֽב׃

3 Honorable things are spoken in You, O city of God. (Selah)

נִכְבָּדוֹת מְדֻבָּר בָּךְ עִיר הָאֱלֹהִים סֶֽלָה׃

4 I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] was born there.

אַזְכִּיר ׀ רַהַב וּבָבֶל לְֽיֹדְעָי הִנֵּה פְלֶשֶׁת וְצוֹר עִם־כּוּשׁ זֶה יֻלַּד־שָֽׁם׃

5 And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, establishes her.

וּֽלֲצִיּוֹן ׀ יֵאָמַר אִישׁ וְאִישׁ יֻלַּד־בָּהּ וְהוּא יְכוֹנְנֶהָ עֶלְיֽוֹן׃

6 YHWH recounts in the describing of the peoples, “This [one] was born there.” (Selah)

יְֽהוָה יִסְפֹּר בִּכְתוֹב עַמִּים זֶה יֻלַּד־שָׁם סֶֽלָה׃

7 Also singers as players on instruments, All my fountains [are] in You!

וְשָׁרִים כְּחֹלְלִים כָּֽל־מַעְיָנַי בָּֽךְ׃
