King James Version

The Book of Psalms

Psalm 87

  

The Glory of Zion, the City of God

A Psalm or Song for the sons of Korah.

1His foundation is in the holy mountains.
2 The Lord loveth the gates of Zion
more than all the dwellings of Jacob. 3 Glorious things are spoken of thee,
O city of God.  Selah.
4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon
to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia;
this man was born there. 5 And of Zion it shall be said,
This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her. 6 The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people,
that this man was born there.  Selah. 7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there:
all my springs are in thee.
