Psalms 87

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

Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Wimbo. Ameuweka msingi wake katika mlima mtakatifu;

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

Bwana anayapenda malango ya Sayuni kuliko makao yote ya Yakobo.

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

Mambo matukufu yanasemwa juu yako, ee mji wa Mungu:

4 I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Look, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: "This one was born there."

“Nitaweka kumbukumbu ya Rahabu na Babeli miongoni mwa wale wanaonikubali mimi: Ufilisti pia na Tiro, pamoja na Kushi, nami nitasema, ‘Huyu alizaliwa Sayuni.’”

5 Yes, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one was born in her;" the Most High himself will establish her.

Kuhusu Sayuni itasemwa hivi, “Huyu na yule walizaliwa humo, naye Aliye Juu Sana mwenyewe atamwimarisha.”

6 Jehovah will count, when he writes up the peoples, "This one was born there." (Selah)

Bwana ataandika katika orodha ya mataifa: “Huyu alizaliwa Sayuni.”

7 And those who sing as well as the pipers: "My whole source of joy is in you."

Watakapokuwa wanapiga vinanda wataimba, “Chemchemi zangu zote ziko kwako.”
