Abụ Ọma 87

1 Abụ Ọma ụmụ Kora. Otu Abụ. Chineke atọọla ntọala ya nʼelu ugwu nsọ ahụ;

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

2 Onyenwe anyị hụrụ ọnụ ụzọ ama Zayọn nʼanya, karịa ebe obibi niile nke Jekọb.

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

3 Ihe dị iche iche nke dị ebube ka a na-ekwu banyere gị, O obodo Chineke; (Sela)

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

4 “Aga m agụnye Rehab na Babilọn, dịka ndị na-asọpụrụ m, aga m agụnyekwa ndị Filistia, na ndị Taịa, na ndị Kush, aga m asị, ‘A mụrụ nke a na Zayọn.’”

I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Look, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: "This one was born there."

5 Nʼezie, a ga-ekwu okwu banyere Zayọn sị, “A mụrụ nke a na nke ọzọ nʼime ya, ya onwe ya, bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, ga-eme ka o guzosie ike.”

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

6 Onyenwe anyị ga-ede nʼime akwụkwọ usoro nke ndị mmadụ: “A mụrụ onye a na Zayọn.”

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

7 Dịka ha na-eti egwu, ha ga-abụ abụ sị, “Isi iyi m niile dị na gị.”

And those who sing as well as the pipers: "My whole source of joy is in you."
