PSALM
87
|
|
87:1 A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains. 87:2 the Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. 87:3 Glorious things are spoken of Thee, O city of God. Selah 87:4 'I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know Me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.' 87:5 But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her; and the Most High Himself doth establish her.' 87:6 the Lord shall count in the register of the peoples: 'This one was born there.' Selah 87:7 And whether they sing or dance, all my thoughts are in Thee. |
