Psalms 87

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

Una canción. Un salmo de los descendientes de Coré. El Señor fundó la ciudad en su monte santo.

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

Jerusalén es la ciudad que ama más que a cualquier ciudad de Israel.

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

¡Muchas cosas maravillosas te son dichas, ciudad de Dios! (Selah)

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.

Menciono a Egipto.

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

Será dicho de Jerusalén: “Todo el mundo nació allí”, y el Altísimo la hará segura.

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

Cuando el Señor cuente las naciones, escribirá: “Ellos nacieron allí”. (Selah)

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

Los cantores y bailarines dirán: “Viviendo aquí me siento en casa”.
