Psalms 87

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

τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορε ψαλμὸς ᾠδῆς οἱ θεμέλιοι αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν τοῖς ἁγίοις

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

ἀγαπᾷ κύριος τὰς πύλας Σιων ὑπὲρ πάντα τὰ σκηνώματα Ιακωβ

3 Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)

δεδοξασμένα ἐλαλήθη περὶ σοῦ ἡ πόλις τοῦ θεοῦ διάψαλμα

4 I will record Rahab and Babylon amongst those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: “This one was born there.”

μνησθήσομαι Ρααβ καὶ Βαβυλῶνος τοῖς γινώσκουσίν με καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀλλόφυλοι καὶ Τύρος καὶ λαὸς Αἰθιόπων οὗτοι ἐγενήθησαν ἐκεῖ

5 Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” the Most High himself will establish her.

μήτηρ Σιων ἐρεῖ ἄνθρωπος καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἐγενήθη ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐθεμελίωσεν αὐτὴν ὁ ὕψιστος

6 The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” (Selah)

κύριος διηγήσεται ἐν γραφῇ λαῶν καὶ ἀρχόντων τούτων τῶν γεγενημένων ἐν αὐτῇ διάψαλμα

7 Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”

ὡς εὐφραινομένων πάντων ἡ κατοικία ἐν σοί
