Psalm 87 | Menge Bibel

1 Von den Korahiten ein Psalm, ein Lied. Seine Gründung liegt auf heiligen Bergen:

2 lieb hat der HERR die Tore Zions mehr als alle (anderen) Wohnstätten Jakobs.

3 Herrliches ist von dir berichtet, du Gottesstadt. SELA.

4 »Ich nenne Ägypten und Babel als meine Bekenner, hier das Philisterland und Tyrus samt Äthiopien – nämlich wer dort seine Heimat hat.«

5 Doch von Zion heißt es: »Mann für Mann hat dort seine Heimat, und er selbst, der Höchste, macht es stark*.«

6 Der HERR zählt, wenn er die Völker aufschreibt*: »Dieser hat dort seine Heimat.« SELA.

7 Sie aber tanzen den Reigen und singen: »Alle meine Quellen sind in dir (o Zion)!«

New International Reader’s Version

A psalm of the Sons of Korah. A song.

1 The LORD has built his city on the holy mountain.

2 He loves the city of Zion more than all the other places where the people of Jacob live.

3 City of God, the LORD says glorious things about you.

4 He says, ‘I will include Egypt and Babylon in a list of nations who recognise me as king. I will also include Philistia and Tyre, along with Cush. I will say about them, “They were born in Zion.” ’

5 Certainly it will be said about Zion, ‘This nation and that nation were born in it. The Most High God himself will make it secure.’

6 Here is what the LORD will write in his list of the nations. ‘Each of them was born in Zion.’

7 As they make music they will sing, ‘Zion, all our blessings come from you.’
