Psalmi 87

1 Njegov temelj je na svetih gorah.

A song. A psalm of the descendants of Korah. The Lord founded the city on his holy mountain.

2 Gospod bolj ljubi sionska velika vrata kakor vsa Jakobova prebivališča.

Jerusalem is the city that the Lord loves more than any other city in Israel.

3 Veličastne stvari se govorijo o tebi, oh Božje mesto. (Sela)

Many wonderful things are said of you, city of God! (Selah)

4 Tistim, ki me poznajo, bom omenjal Rahab in Babilon; glej Filisteja in Tir z Etiopijo; ta človek je bil rojen tam.

I mention Egypt and Babylon as those who know me, and in addition Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia—“this man was born there.”

5 In o Sionu bo rečeno: »Ta in ta človek je bil rojen v njem in sam najvišji ga bo utrdil.«

It will be said concerning Jerusalem, “Everyone was born there,” and the Most High will make it secure.

6 Ko vpisuje ljudstvo, bo Gospod štel, da je bil ta človek rojen tam. (Sela)

When the Lord registers the nations, he will write, “They were born there.” (Selah)

7 Prav tako bodo tam tako pevci kakor igralci na glasbila. Vsi moji izviri so v tebi.

Singers and dancers alike say, “Living here I am at home.”
