< Psalms 87 >
1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.
Kora mma dwom. Awurade ato ne fapem wɔ bepɔ kronkron no so;
2 Adonai 'ahav ·affectionately loves· the gates of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] more than all the dwellings of Jacob [Supplanter].
Awurade dɔ Sion apono no sene Yakob atenaeɛ nyinaa.
3 Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
Wɔka wo ho animuonyamsɛm Ao Onyankopɔn kuropɔn:
4 I will record Rahab and Babylon [Confusion] among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: “This one was born there.”
“Mede Rahab ne Babilonia bɛka wɔn a wɔyɛ ɔsetie ma me no ho, Filistia, Tiro ne Kus nso mɛka sɛ, ‘Wɔwoo yeinom wɔ Sion.’”
5 Yes, of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” haElyon [the Most High] himself will establish her.
Ampa ara wɔbɛka wɔ Sion ho sɛ, “Wɔwoo yei ne ɔno wɔ ne mu, na Ɔsorosoroni no ankasa de no bɛtim hɔ.”
6 Adonai will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
Awurade bɛtwerɛ wɔ nnipa dintwerɛ nwoma no mu sɛ, “Wɔwoo yei wɔ Sion.”
7 Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”
Na wɔbɛto dwom sɛ, “Me nhini nyinaa wɔ wo mu.” Kora mma dwom a wɔde ma dwomkyerɛfoɔ sɛ wɔnto no “Mahalat Leannot” sankuo so.
