Psalms 87

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[1] > His foundation is in the holy mountains. [2] Yahweh loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. [3] Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. Selah. [4] I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: "This one was born there." [5] Yes, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one was born in her;" The Most High himself will establish her. [6] Yahweh will count, when he writes up the peoples, "This one was born there." Selah. [7] Those who sing as well as those who dance say, "All my springs are in you."
