Psalms 87

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

Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Khopui teh mon ka thoung dawk a kangdue sak.

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

Jakop khosaknae pueng hlak hai BAWIPA ni Zion longkha a lungpatawhnawn.

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

Oe Cathut e khopui, na kong heh ka sungren poung lah ouk a dei awh. (Selah)

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

Na kapanueknaw koe Rahab hoi Babilon kong hah ka dei han. Khenhaw! Oe Filistin hoi Taire, Ethiopia, hetheh, haw hoi ka tâcawt e doeh ati awh han.

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

Zion kong dawk hettelah a dei awh han. Het hoi hot teh ama dawk hoi ka tâcawt e doeh. Lathueng Poung ni a ma teh, a caksak telah ati awh han.

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

BAWIPA ni tami pueng min a thut toteh, hethateh, haw e ka tâcawt e doeh telah mitnout a ta awh han.

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

La kasaknaw hoi tumkhawng kakhawngnaw ni, tuiphuek pueng nang koe ao telah ati awh han.
