Psalms 87

1 For the Sons of Korah. A Melody, a Song. His foundation, is in the holy mountains:

Korah caanawk ih Saam laa. Anih angdoethaih ahmuen loe angmah ih kaciim mae ah oh.

2 Yahweh loveth the gates of Zion, More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

Angraeng loe Jakob ohhaih ahmuennawk boih pongah doeh, Zion ih khongkhanawk to palung kue.

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

Aw Sithaw vangpui, nihcae mah na lensawkhaih hmuennawk to thuih o. (Selah)

4 I will mention Rahab and Babylon, to them who know me—Lo! Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia, This one was born there.

Kai panoek kaminawk khaeah Rahab hoi Babylon to ka thuih han; Philistia, Tura hoi Ethiopia kaminawk to khenah; hae kami loe to vangpui ah ni tapen.

5 But, of Zion, it shall be said—This man and that were born in her, And the Highest himself shall establish her.

Hae ih kaminawk hoi ho ih kaminawk loe to vangpui ah ni tapen; Kasang koek, angmah roe mah, to vangpui to caksak tih, tiah Zion kawng to thui o tih boeh.

6 Yahweh, will record, when he enrolleth the peoples, This one was born there. (Selah)

Angraeng mah kaminawk ih ahmin to tarik naah, hae kami loe to ahmuen ah ni tapen, tiah pakuem tih. (Selah)

7 As well the singers as the flute-players [are saying], —All my springs, are in thee!

Laasah kaminawk, katoeng kruek moe, tamoi ueng kaminawk boih mah, kaicae anghoehaihnawk boih loe nang khaeah ni oh, tiah thui o tih.
