Psalms 87

1 A Psalm of a Song for the sons of Core. His foundations are in the holy mountains.

Njegov temelj je na svetih gorah.

2 The Lord loves the gates of Sion, more than all the tabernacles of Jacob.

Gospod bolj ljubi sionska velika vrata kakor vsa Jakobova prebivališča.

3 Glorious things have been spoken of thee, O city of God. (Pause)

Veličastne stvari se govorijo o tebi, oh Božje mesto. (Sela)

4 I will make mention of Raab and Babylon to them that know me: behold also the Philistines, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians: these were born there.

Tistim, ki me poznajo, bom omenjal Rahab in Babilon; glej Filisteja in Tir z Etiopijo; ta človek je bil rojen tam.

5 A man shall say, Sion [is my] mother; and [such] a man was born in her; and the Highest himself has founded her.

In o Sionu bo rečeno: »Ta in ta človek je bil rojen v njem in sam najvišji ga bo utrdil.«

6 The Lord shall recount [it] in the writing of the people, and of these princes that were born in her.

Ko vpisuje ljudstvo, bo Gospod štel, da je bil ta človek rojen tam. (Sela)

7 The dwelling of all within thee is [as the dwelling] of those that rejoice.

Prav tako bodo tam tako pevci kakor igralci na glasbila. Vsi moji izviri so v tebi.
