Psalms, 87

Of the sons of Koʹrah. A melody, a song.

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 Jehovah is more in love with the gates of Zion Than with all the tabernacles of Jacob.

3 Glorious things are being spoken about you, O city of the [true] God. Seʹlah.

4 I shall make mention of Raʹhab*1 and Babylon*2 as among those knowing me; Here are Phi·lisʹti·a and Tyre, together with Cush:*3 “This is one who was born there.”

  1. Or, “the Stormer.” T, “the Egyptians.” Compare 89:10 ftn.

  2. “And Babylon,” LXXVg; Heb., u·Va·velʹ, “and Babel.”

  3. “Cush.” Heb., Kush; LXXVg, “the Ethiopian people.”

5 And respecting Zion it will be said: “Each and every one*1 was born in her.” And the Most High himself will firmly establish her.

  1. Or, “[This] man and [that] man.”

6 Jehovah himself will declare, when recording the peoples: “This is one who was born there.” Seʹlah.

7 There will also be singers as well as dancers of circle dances: “All my springs are in you.”
