Psalms 87

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 A psalm of the Korahites. A song. The LORD loves the city founded on holy mountains,	1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.
2 Loves the gates of Zion more than any dwelling in Jacob.	2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
3 Glorious things are said of you, O city of God! Selah	3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
4 From Babylon and Egypt I count those who acknowledge the LORD. Philistia, Ethiopia, Tyre, of them it can be said: "This one was born there."	4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
5 But of Zion it must be said: "They all were born here." The Most High confirms this;	5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.
6 the Lord notes in the register of the peoples: "This one was born here." Selah	6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.
7 So all sing in their festive dance: "Within you is my true home."	7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
