Psalms 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."

6 The Lord records, as he registers the peoples, "This one was born there." (Selah)
