‏ Psalms 87

By the sons of Korach; a psalm or song.

1 It is founded by him on holy mountains. 2 The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. 3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah. 4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as those that know me; behold, here is Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: "This man was born there." 5 But of Zion will it be said, "This and that man were born in her:" and the Most High himself doth establish her. 6 The Lord will number when he writeth down nations. "This man was born there." Selah. 7 And the singers as well as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs of joy are in thee.
