Psalms 87

   |   

The Privileges of Citizenship in Zion.

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song.

1 His (C1)foundation is on the holy mountain.

2 The LORD (C1)loves the gates of Zion
More than all the dwellings of Jacob (Israel).

3 (C1)Glorious things are spoken of you,
O (C2)city of God Jerusalem. Selah.

4 "I will mention (C1)Rahab (Egypt) and Babylon among those who know Me—
Behold, Philistia and (C2)Tyre with (C3)Ethiopia (Cush)—
'This one was born there.'"

5 But of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one were born in her,"
And the Most High Himself will (C1)establish her.

6 The LORD will count, when He (C1)registers the peoples,
"This one was born there." Selah.

7 The (C1)singers as well as the (C2)players of flutes will say,
"All my (C3)springs and sources of joy are in you Jerusalem, city of God."
