< Psalms 87 >

1 The city that Yahweh established is on his sacred hill.
Of [the] sons of Korah a psalm a song foundation his [is] among [the] mountains of holiness.
2 He loves that city, Jerusalem, more than he loves any other city in Israel.
[is] loving Yahweh [the] gates of Zion more than all [the] dwelling places of Jacob.
3 [You people in] [APO] the city that God (owns/lives in), people say wonderful things about your city.
Glorious [things] [is] spoken in you O city of God (Selah)
4 [Some of those who know about God are the people of] Egypt and Babylonia, and also [the people of] Philistia and Tyre and Ethiopia; [some day they all] will say, “[Although I was not born in Jerusalem], [because I belong to Yahweh, it is as though] I was born there.”
I will bring to remembrance - Rahab and Babylon to [those who] know me there! Philistia and Tyre with Cush this one it was born there.
5 And concerning Jerusalem, people will say [“It is as though] everyone was born there, and Almighty God will cause that city to remain strong/safe/secure.”
And of Zion - it will be said a person and a person he was born in it and he he will establish it [the] Most High.
6 Yahweh will write a list of [the names of] the people of various groups [who belong to him], and he will say that [he considers them] all to be citizens of Jerusalem.
Yahweh he will count when records peoples this one he was born there (Selah)
7 They will all dance and sing, saying, “Jerusalem is the source of all our blessings.”
And singers like pipers all springs my [are] in you.
