Psalms 87

   |   

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

A Psalm of (a)the Sons of Korah. A Song.

1 On (b)the holy mount (c)stands the city he founded;
2     the Lord (d)loves the gates of Zion
    more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
3 (e)Glorious things of you are spoken,
    O (f)city of God. Selah

4 Among those who (g)know me I mention (h)Rahab and Babylon;
    behold, Philistia and Tyre, with (i)Cush[a]
    "This one was born there," they say.
5 And of Zion it shall be said,
    "This one and that one were born in her";
    for the Most High himself will (j)establish her.
6 The Lord records as he (k)registers the peoples,
    "This one was born there." Selah

7 (l)Singers and (m)dancers alike say,
    "All my (n)springs are in you."
