Psalms

Chapter 87

1 The city he founded is on the holy mountains.

2 The Lord loves Zion’s city gates more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Glorious things are said about you, city of God. Selah

4 "I will make a record of those who know me: Rahab, Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Cush — each one was born there."

5 And it will be said of Zion, "This one and that one were born in her." The Most High himself will establish her.

6 When he registers the peoples, the Lord will record, "This one was born there." Selah

7 Singers and dancers alike will say, "My whole source of joy is in you."
