תהילים 87

1 לבני-קרח מזמור שיר יסודתו בהררי-קדש

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

2 אהב יהוה שערי ציון-- מכל משכנות יעקב

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

3 נכבדות מדבר בך-- עיר האלהים סלה

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

4 אזכיר רהב ובבל-- לידעי הנה פלשת וצר עם-כוש זה ילד-שם

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

5 ולציון יאמר-- איש ואיש ילד-בה והוא יכוננה עליון

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

6 יהוה--יספר בכתוב עמים זה ילד-שם סלה

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

7 ושרים כחללים-- כל-מעיני בך

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