< Mazmur 87 >
1 Mazmur bani Korah: suatu nyanyian. Di gunung-gunung yang kudus ada kota yang dibangunkan-Nya:
A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.
2 TUHAN lebih mencintai pintu-pintu gerbang Sion dari pada segala tempat kediaman Yakub.
The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
3 Hal-hal yang mulia dikatakan tentang engkau, ya kota Allah. (Sela)
Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)
4 Aku menyebut Rahab dan Babel di antara orang-orang yang mengenal Aku, bahkan Filistea, Tirus dan Etiopia: "Ini dilahirkan di sana."
I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: “This one was born there.”
5 Tetapi tentang Sion dikatakan: "Seorang demi seorang dilahirkan di dalamnya," dan Dia, Yang Mahatinggi, menegakkannya.
Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” the Most High himself will establish her.
6 TUHAN menghitung pada waktu mencatat bangsa-bangsa: "Ini dilahirkan di sana." (Sela)
The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” (Selah)
7 Dan orang menyanyi-nyanyi sambil menari beramai-ramai: "Segala mata airku ada di dalammu."
Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”
