Psalms 87

The LORD Loves the Gates of Zion A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song.

¹He has founded His city
on the holy mountains. ²The LORD loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwellings of Jacob. ³Glorious things are ascribed to you,
O city of God.Selah ⁴“I will mention Rahab
and Babylon
among those who know Me—
along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush
—
when I say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’” ⁵And it will be said of Zion:
“This one and that one were born in her,
and the Most High Himself will establish her.” ⁶The LORD will record in the register of the peoples:
“This one was born in Zion.”Selah ⁷Singers and pipers will proclaim,
“All my springs of joy are in You.”
