Psalms 87

1 A Psalm [or] Song for the sons of Korah. His foundation [is] in the holy mountains.

filiis Core psalmus cantici fundamenta eius in montibus sanctis

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

diligit Dominus portas Sion super omnia tabernacula Iacob

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

gloriosa dicta sunt de te civitas Dei diapsalma

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush; this [man] was born there.

memor ero Raab et Babylonis scientibus me ecce alienigenae et Tyrus et populus Aethiopum hii fuerunt illic

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

numquid Sion dicet homo et homo natus est in ea et ipse fundavit eam Altissimus

6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, [that] this [man] was born there. (Selah)

Dominus narrabit in scriptura populorum et principum horum qui fuerunt in ea diapsalma

7 As well the singers as the players on instruments [shall be there]: all my springs [are] in thee.

sicut laetantium omnium habitatio in te
