< Psalm 87 >
1 [Psalm Lun Tulik Natul Korah] LEUM GOD El musaela siti sel fineol mutal.
A Psalm of a Song for the sons of Core. His foundations are in the holy mountains.
2 El lungse siti Jerusalem Yohk liki kutena acn saya in Israel.
The Lord loves the gates of Sion, more than all the tabernacles of Jacob.
3 Porongo, O kowos su mwet in siti lun God, Ke ma wolana ma El fahk keiwos:
Glorious things have been spoken of you, O city of God. (Pause)
4 “Nga ac fah oakla acn Egypt ac Babylonia Ke nga takunla inen mutunfacl su akosyu; Mwet Philistia, Tyre, ac Ethiopia Nga ac fah oakalos pac inmasrlon mwet su muta Jerusalem.”
I will make mention of Raab and Babylon to them that know me: behold also the Philistines, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians: these were born there.
5 Ac mwet uh fah fahk Tuh mutanfahl nukewa elos mwet Zion, Ac El su Kulana fah oru tuh Zion in ku.
A man shall say, Sion [is my] mother; and [such] a man was born in her; and the Highest himself has founded her.
6 LEUM GOD El ac simusla inen mwet inge, Ac oakalosyang nukewa nu ke mwet Jerusalem.
The Lord shall recount [it] in the writing of the people, and of these princes that were born in her.
7 Elos ac fah onsrosro ac fahk, “Mwe insewowo lasr nukewa tuku Zion me.”
The dwelling of all within you is [as the dwelling] of those that rejoice.
