Psalm 87

Common English Bible CEB

1 God's foundation is set on the holy mountains.

2 The LORD loves Zion's gates more than all of Jacob's houses combined.

3 Glorious things are said about you, the city of God! Selah

4 I count Rahab and Babel among those who know me; also Philistia and Tyre, along with Cush— each of these was born there.

5 And of Zion it is said: "Each person was born in it, but the one who will establish it is the Most High."

6 The LORD makes a record as he registers the peoples: "Each one was born there." Selah

7 And while they dance, people sing: "The source of my life comes from you."

The Message Bible MSG

1 He founded Zion on the Holy Mountain -

2 and oh, how God loves his home! Loves it far better than all the homes of Jacob put together!

3 God's hometown - oh! everyone there is talking about you!

4 I name them off, those among whom I'm famous: Egypt and Babylon, also Philistia, even Tyre, along with Cush. Word's getting around; they point them out: "This one was born again here!"

5 The word's getting out on Zion: "Men and women, right and left, get born again in her!"

6 God registers their names in his book: "This one, this one, and this one - born again, right here."

7 Singers and dancers give credit to Zion: "All my springs are in you!"
