Mazmur 87

1 Mazmur kaum Korah, sebuah nyanyian. TUHAN mendirikan kota-Nya di atas bukit-Nya yang suci.

“A psalm of the sons of Korah.” His foundation is in the holy mountains;

2 Dari semua kota di Israel, Yerusalem yang paling dikasihi-Nya.

Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Dengarlah, hai kota Allah, hal-hal yang menakjubkan dikatakan-Nya tentang engkau:

Glorious things are said of thee, O city of God! (Pause)

4 "Mesir dan Babel akan Kumasukkan dalam daftar bangsa-bangsa yang taat kepada-Ku. Bahkan Filistea, Tirus dan Sudan masuk bilangan penduduk Yerusalem."

“I name Egypt and Babylon among them that know me; Behold! Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia, —They also were born there.”

5 Kepada Sion orang akan berkata, bahwa semua bangsa termasuk warganya, dan bahwa Yang Mahatinggi akan mengukuhkan dia.

And of Zion it shall be said, “Men of every nation were born there, And the Most High hath established her.”

6 TUHAN akan memasukkan bangsa-bangsa dalam daftar penduduk Yerusalem.

Jehovah, when he numbereth the nations, shall write, “These were born there!” (Pause)

7 Mereka akan menari dan menyanyi, "Sion adalah tempat asalku!"

Singers as well as dancers, —All my springs are in thee!
