Psalms 87

1 Of the Korahites, a psalm. A song. On the holy mountain stands the city he founded.

Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Oluyimba. Atadde emisingi gye ku lusozi olutukuvu.

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

Mukama ayagala emiryango gya Sayuuni okusinga ennyumba zonna eza Yakobo.

3 Glorious things he is speaking of you, you city of God. (Selah)

Ebintu eby’ekitiibwa bikwogerwako, ggwe ekibuga kya Katonda.

4 ‘Among those who are mine I name Rahab and Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, Ethiopia, their people will say I was born in Zion.

“Mu mawanga ge mmanyi mwe muli Lakabu, ne Babulooni; era ndyogera ku Bufirisuuti, ne ku Ttuulo ne ku Esiyopya nti, ‘Ono yazaalirwa mu Sayuuni.’”

5 As for Zion it will be said each and all were born in her.’ The Lord will preserve her.

Bwe baliba boogera ku Sayuuni baligamba nti, “Ono n’oli baazaalirwa omwo,” n’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo alikinyweza.

6 The Lord will count, when enrolling the peoples, ‘This one was born there, and that one was born there.’ (Selah)

Mukama aliwandiika mu kitabo bw’ati, omuli amannya g’abantu nti, “Ono yazaalibwa omwo.”

7 Singers and dancers alike will say ‘All my springs are in you.’

Banaakubanga ebivuga nga bwe bayimba nti, “Ensulo zange zonna ziri mu ggwe.”
