Psalms 87

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

Zaburi mar yawuot Kora. Wer. Oseguro mise mare ewi got maler;

2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

Jehova Nyasaye ohero rangeye mag Sayun, moloyo kuonde dak duto mag Jakobo.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

Ji wacho gik madongo kuomi, yaye dala maduongʼ mar Nyasaye: (Sela)

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.

“Abiro kwano Rahab gi Babulon e kanyakla mar joma ongʼeya, nyaka Filistia bende, kod Turo, kaachiel gi Kush kendo abiro wacho ni, ‘Ngʼatni nonywol ei Sayun.’”

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

Adier, nowachi kuom Sayun niya, “En min ogendini mathoth, kendo Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo owuon biro chunge.”

6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the peoples, this one was born there. (Selah)

Jehova Nyasaye biro ndiko e kitabu mindikoe nying ogendini kama: “Jali nonywol ei Sayun.” (Sela)

7 They that sing as well as they that dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee.

Sa ma giloso wer to giniwer niya, “Soknina duto ni e iyi.”
