Psalms of David - Modern Translation - Psalm 87

The foundation of His city is set upon the holy mountains;
the Lord loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwellings of His people.

Glorious things are spoken of you,
O city of God.

I will count Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me;
even Philistia, Tyre, and Cush will be said to belong to Him.

And of Zion it will be declared:
"This one and that one were born in her,
and the Most High Himself will establish her."

The Lord will write in the record of the peoples:
"This one was born there."

Singers and dancers alike will say,
"All my springs of joy are in You."
