Psalms 87

1 By sons of Korah. — A Psalm, a song. His foundation [is] in holy mountains.

filiis Core psalmus cantici fundamenta eius in montibus sanctis

2 Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

diligit Dominus portas Sion super omnia tabernacula Iacob

3 Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. (Selah)

gloriosa dicta sunt de te civitas Dei diapsalma

4 I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] 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 is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, doth establish her.

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

6 Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples, 'This [one] was born there.' (Selah)

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

7 Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains [are] in Thee!

sicut laetantium omnium habitatio in te
