Psalms 87

1 Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song. His foundation is in the mountains of holiness.

Mazmur kaum Korah, sebuah nyanyian. TUHAN mendirikan kota-Nya di atas bukit-Nya yang suci.

2 Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion more than all the habitations of Jacob.

Dari semua kota di Israel, Yerusalem yang paling dikasihi-Nya.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)

Dengarlah, hai kota Allah, hal-hal yang menakjubkan dikatakan-Nya tentang engkau:

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon among them that know me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: this [man] was born there.

"Mesir dan Babel akan Kumasukkan dalam daftar bangsa-bangsa yang taat kepada-Ku. Bahkan Filistea, Tirus dan Sudan masuk bilangan penduduk Yerusalem."

5 And of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; and the Most High himself shall establish her.

Kepada Sion orang akan berkata, bahwa semua bangsa termasuk warganya, dan bahwa Yang Mahatinggi akan mengukuhkan dia.

6 Jehovah will count, when he inscribeth the peoples, This [man] was born there. (Selah)

TUHAN akan memasukkan bangsa-bangsa dalam daftar penduduk Yerusalem.

7 As well the singers as the dancers [shall say], All my springs are in thee.

Mereka akan menari dan menyanyi, "Sion adalah tempat asalku!"
