‏ Psalms 87

A psalm of the sons of Korah.

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains; 2 Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob. 3 Glorious things are said of thee, O city of God! [Pause.] 4 "I name Egypt and Babylon among them that know me; Behold! Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia,—They also were born there." 5 And of Zion it shall be said, "Men of every nation were born there, And the Most High hath established her." 6 Jehovah, when he numbereth the nations, shall write, "These were born there!" [Pause.] 7 Singers as well as dancers,—All my springs are in thee!
