Psalmorum 87

1 Filiis Core, Psalmus Cantici. Fundamenta eius in montibus sanctis:

For the Sons of Korah. A Melody, a Song. His foundation, is in the holy mountains:

2 diligit Dominus portas Sion super omnia tabernacula Iacob.

Yahweh loveth the gates of Zion, More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Gloriosa dicta sunt de te, civitas Dei.

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

4 Memor ero Rahab, et Babylonis scientium me. Ecce alienigenæ, et Tyrus, et populus Æthiopum, hi fuerunt illic.

I will mention Rahab and Babylon, to them who know me—Lo! Philistia and Tyre with Ethiopia, This one was born there.

5 Numquid Sion dicet: Homo, et homo natus est in ea: et ipse fundavit eam Altissimus?

But, of Zion, it shall be said—This man and that were born in her, And the Highest himself shall establish her.

6 Dominus narrabit in scripturis populorum, et principum: horum, qui fuerunt in ea.

Yahweh, will record, when he enrolleth the peoples, This one was born there. (Selah)

7 Sicut lætantium omnium habitatio est in te.

As well the singers as the flute-players [are saying], —All my springs, are in thee!
