Psalm 87

¹A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song. He has founded His city on the holy mountains.

²The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

³Glorious things are ascribed to you, O city of God. Selah

⁴“I will mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me — along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush — [when I say,] ‘This one was born [in Zion].’”

⁵And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

⁶The LORD will record in the register of the peoples: “This one was born [in Zion].” Selah

⁷Singers and pipers [will proclaim], “All my springs [of joy] [are] in You.”
