87 1 On the holy mount stands the city he founded;
87 2 Yahweh loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
87 3 Glorious things are spoken of you,
O city of God. Selah
87 4 Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon;
behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia -
"This one was born there," they say.
87 5 And of Zion it shall be said,
"This one and that one were born in her";
for the Most High himself will establish her.
87 6 Yahweh records as he registers the peoples,
"This one was born there." Selah
87 7 Singers and dancers alike say,
"All my springs are in you."
