Psalms 87

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

1By sons of Korah. --A Psalm, a song. His foundation <FI>is<Fi> in holy mountains.

2Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

2Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

3Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. [Selah

3Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. Selah.

4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This one was born there.

4I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This <FI>one<Fi> was born there.

5Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.

5And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, doth establish her.

6Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. [Selah

6Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples, `This <FI>one<Fi> was born there.' Selah.

7They that sing as well as they that dance shall say, All my fountains are in thee.

7Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains <FI>are<Fi> in Thee!
