Psalm 87
87
Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
A Psalm of #Ps. 42, titlethe Sons of Korah. A Song.
1On #See Ps. 48:1 the holy mount #Isa. 28:16stands the city he founded;
2the Lord #Ps. 78:67, 68loves the gates of Zion
more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
3 # [Isa. 60:1]; See Isa. 54:1-3 Glorious things of you are spoken,
O #Ps. 46:4city of God. Selah
4Among those who #Ps. 36:10; [John 10:14] know me I mention #See Job 9:13; See Isa. 19:22-25 Rahab and Babylon;
behold, Philistia and Tyre, with #See Ps. 68:31Cush#87:4 Probably Nubia—
“This one was born there,” they say.
5And of Zion it shall be said,
“This one and that one were born in her”;
for the Most High himself will #Ps. 48:8establish her.
6The Lord records as he #See Ps. 69:28registers the peoples,
“This one was born there.” Selah
7 #
Ps. 68:25 Singers and #2 Sam. 6:14 dancers alike say,
“All my #Ps. 36:9; Isa. 12:3; Rev. 21:6springs are in you.”
