‏ Psalms 87

1 A Psalm of a Song for the sons of Core. His foundations are in the holy mountains.
2 The Lord loves the gates of Sion, more than all the tabernacles of Jacob.
3 Glorious things have been spoken of you, O city of God. Pause.
4 I will make mention of Raab and Babylon to them that know me: behold also the Philistines,and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians: these were born there.
5 A man shall say, Sionis my mother; andsuch a man was born in her; and the Highest himself has founded her.
6 The Lord shall recountit in the writing of the people, and of these princes that were born in her.
7 The dwelling of all within you isas the dwelling of those that rejoice.
