Psalm 87

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 A psalm of the sons of Korach. A song: On the holy mountains is [the city's] foundation.

2 ADONAI loves the gates of Tziyon more than all the dwellings in Ya'akov.

3 Glorious things are said about you, city of God. (Selah)

4 I count Rahav and Bavel among those who know me; Of P'leshet, Tzor and Ethiopia [they will say], "This one was born there."

5 But of Tziyon it will be said, "This one and that was born in it, for the Most High himself establishes it."

6 When he registers the peoples, ADONAI will record, "This one was born there."(Selah)

7 Singers and dancers alike say, "For me, you are the source of everything."

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!"
