Psalm 87:1-7

(Of the sons of Korah; a psalm; a song.) 87  His foundation on sacred mountains 2  Jehovah loves, the gates of Sionmore than all the abodes of Jacob. 3  Glorious things are to be spoken of you,city of God! (Selah) 4  I will mention Rahab and Babylon for those who know me;here are Philistia and Tyre, with Nubia,this one was born there. 5  But of Sion it shall be said “Man upon man was born in her,” and he, the Most High, holds her fast. 6  Jehovah will count in the register of peoples“This one was born there.” (Selah) 7  And singers as well as dancerswill all shout of you.
