Psalm 87


The Privileges of Citizenship in Zion.

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song.

His afoundation is in the holy mountains.

2
The Lord aloves the gates of Zion
More than all the other dwelling places of Jacob.

3
aGlorious things are spoken of you,
O bcity of God. 1Selah.

4
“I shall mention 1aRahab and Babylon 2among those who know Me;
Behold, Philistia and bTyre with 3cEthiopia:
‘This one was born there.’”

5
But of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”;
And the Most High Himself will aestablish her.

6
The Lord will count when He aregisters the peoples,
“This one was born there.” Selah.

7
Then those who asing as well as those who 1bplay the flutes shall say,
“All my csprings of joy are in you.”
