Psalmorum 87

1 Psalmus Cantici, filiis Core. Fundamenta eius in montibus sanctis:

Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song. This house is resting on the holy mountain.

2 diligit Dominus portas Sion super omnia tabernacula Iacob.

The Lord has more love for the doors of Zion than for all the tents of Jacob.

3 Gloriosa dicta sunt de te, civitas Dei.

Noble things are said of you, O town of God. (Selah)

4 Memor ero Rahab, et Babylonis scientium me. Ecce alienigenae, et Tyrus, et populus Aethiopum, hi fuerunt illic.

Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.

5 Numquid Sion dicet: Homo, et homo natus est in ea: et ipse fundavit eam Altissimus?

And of Zion it will be said, This or that man had his birth there; and the Most High will make her strong.

6 Dominus narrabit in scripturis populorum, et principum: horum, qui fuerunt in ea.

The Lord will keep in mind, when he is writing the records of the people, that this man had his birth there. (Selah)

7 Sicut laetantium omnium habitatio est in te.

The players on instruments will be there, and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.
