Psalm 87 | English Standard Version

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. A Song.

1 On the holy mount stands the city he founded;

2 the LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.

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

4 Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon; behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush*— “This one was born there,” they say.

5 And of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”; for the Most High himself will establish her.

6 The LORD records as he registers the peoples, “This one was born there.” Selah

7 Singers and dancers alike say, “All my springs are in you.”

1 Des fils de Koré. Psaume. Cantique. Elle est fondée sur les montagnes saintes.

2 L'Éternel aime les portes de Sion Plus que toutes les demeures de Jacob.

3 Des choses glorieuses ont été dites sur toi, Ville de Dieu! Pause.

4 Je proclame l'Égypte et Babylone parmi ceux qui me connaissent; Voici, le pays des Philistins, Tyr, avec l'Éthiopie: C'est dans Sion qu'ils sont nés.

5 Et de Sion il est dit: Tous y sont nés, Et c'est le Très Haut qui l'affermit.

6 L'Éternel compte en inscrivant les peuples: C'est là qu'ils sont nés. Pause.

7 Et ceux qui chantent et ceux qui dansent s'écrient: Toutes mes sources sont en toi.
