Psalms 87

1 A Psalm by the sons of Korah; 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 loves 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 spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)

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

4 I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also 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 Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” the Most High himself will 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 count, when he writes up 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 Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”

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