Psalms 87

1 A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

Elamadodana kaKhora. Ihubo. Ingoma. Usakhile isisekelo sakhe entabeni engcwele;

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

uThixo uyawathanda amasango eZiyoni okudlula yonke imizi kaJakhobe.

3 Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)

Izinto ezinhle okumangalisayo ziyatshiwo ngawe, we muzi kaNkulunkulu:

4 I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: “This one was born there.”

“Ngizabalisa uRahabi leBhabhiloni phakathi kwalabo abathi bayangazi iFilistiya leThire, kanye leKhushi ngibe sengisithi, ‘Lo wazalelwa eZiyoni.’”

5 Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” the Most High himself will establish her.

Ngempela kuzathiwa ngeZiyoni, “Lo laloyana bazalelwa khona, kuthi yena oPhezukonke uzaliqinisa.”

6 The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” (Selah)

UThixo uzaloba eluhlwini lwamabizo abantu: “Lo wazalelwa eZiyoni.”

7 Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”

Bazakuthi betshaya amachacho bahlabele bathi, “Yonke imithombo yami ikuwe.”
