Psalms 87 ASV

1A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2Jehovah loveth the gates of Zion More than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. [Selah

4I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know me: Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This one was born there.

5Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.

6Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. [Selah

7They that sing as well as they that dance [shall say], All my fountains are in thee.
