< Psalms 87 >

1 [A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song.] His foundation is in the holy mountains.
لِبَنِي قُورَحَ. مَزْمُورُ تَسْبِيحَةٍ أَسَاسُهُ فِي ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ.١
2 The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
ٱلرَّبُّ أَحَبَّ أَبْوَابَ صِهْيَوْنَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مَسَاكِنِ يَعْقُوبَ.٢
3 Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)
قَدْ قِيلَ بِكِ أَمْجَادٌ يَا مَدِينَةَ ٱللهِ. سِلَاهْ.٣
4 I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Look, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: "This one was born there."
«أَذْكُرُ رَهَبَ وَبَابِلَ عَارِفَتَيَّ. هُوَذَا فَلَسْطِينُ وَصُورُ مَعَ كُوشَ. هَذَا وُلِدَ هُنَاكَ».٤
5 Yes, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one was born in her;" the Most High himself will establish her.
وَلِصِهْيَوْنَ يُقَالُ: «هَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، وَهَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ وُلِدَ فِيهَا، وَهِيَ ٱلْعَلِيُّ يُثَبِّتُهَا».٥
6 The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples, "This one was born there." (Selah)
ٱلرَّبُّ يَعُدُّ فِي كِتَابَةِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ: «أَنَّ هَذَا وُلِدَ هُنَاكَ». سِلَاهْ.٦
7 And those who sing as well as the pipers: "My whole source of joy is in you."
وَمُغَنُّونَ كَعَازِفِينَ: «كُلُّ ٱلسُّكَّانِ فِيكِ».٧
