Psalms 87

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

Nkunga bana ba Kole. Wutula fondasio andi ku mongo wunlongo.

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

Yave weti zola mielo mi Sioni viokila bibuangu bioso bimvuandanga Yakobi.

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

Mambu ma nkembo matubu mu diambu diaku; a divula di Nzambi.

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

“Ndiela yolukila Lahabi ayi Babiloni muidi bobo banzebi; tsi yi Filisiti ayi Tila va kimosi ayi Kutsi: ayi tuba: mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila”.

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

Buna mu diambu di Sioni; bela tuba: “Mutu wawu ayi mutu wuna, mu niandi babutukila” ayi Nzambi yizangama, niandi wela kumbieka.

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

Yave wela sonika batu mu buku: “mutu wawu ku Sioni kabutukila.”

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

Bu balembo budi miziki, bela yimbila: “zitho ziama zioso zidi mu ngeyo.”
