Psalms 87

¹A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song. His foundation is on the holy mountain.

²The LORD loves the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob (Israel).

³Glorious things are spoken of you, O city of God [Jerusalem]. Selah.

⁴"I will mention Rahab (Egypt) and Babylon among those who know Me— Behold, Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia (Cush)— 'This one was born there.'"

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

⁶The LORD will count, when He registers the peoples, "This one was born there." Selah.

⁷The singers as well as the players of flutes will say, "All my springs and sources of joy are in you [Jerusalem, city of God]."
