Zaburi 87

1 Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Wimbo. Ameuweka msingi wake katika mlima mtakatifu;

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

2 Bwana anayapenda malango ya Sayuni kuliko makao yote ya Yakobo.

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

3 Mambo matukufu yanasemwa juu yako, ee mji wa Mungu:

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

4 “Nitaweka kumbukumbu ya Rahabu na Babeli miongoni mwa wale wanaonikubali mimi: Ufilisti pia na Tiro, pamoja na Kushi, nami nitasema, ‘Huyu alizaliwa Sayuni.’”

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 Kuhusu Sayuni itasemwa hivi, “Huyu na yule walizaliwa humo, naye Aliye Juu Sana mwenyewe atamwimarisha.”

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

6 Bwana ataandika katika orodha ya mataifa: “Huyu alizaliwa Sayuni.”

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

7 Watakapokuwa wanapiga vinanda wataimba, “Chemchemi zangu zote ziko kwako.”

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