< Zaburi 87 >

1 Zaburi ya wana wa Kora. Wimbo. Ameuweka msingi wake katika mlima mtakatifu;
A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. A SONG. His foundation [is] in holy mountains.
2 Bwana anayapenda malango ya Sayuni kuliko makao yote ya Yakobo.
YHWH is loving the gates of Zion Above all the dwelling places of Jacob.
3 Mambo matukufu yanasemwa juu yako, ee mji wa Mungu:
Honorable things are spoken in You, O city 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.’”
I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] was born there.
5 Kuhusu Sayuni itasemwa hivi, “Huyu na yule walizaliwa humo, naye Aliye Juu Sana mwenyewe atamwimarisha.”
And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, establishes her.
6 Bwana ataandika katika orodha ya mataifa: “Huyu alizaliwa Sayuni.”
YHWH recounts in the describing of the peoples, “This [one] was born there.” (Selah)
7 Watakapokuwa wanapiga vinanda wataimba, “Chemchemi zangu zote ziko kwako.”
Also singers as players on instruments, All my fountains [are] in You!
