Psalm 87
Fundamenta ejus
1
Her foundations are upon the holy hills *
the Lord loveth the gates of Sion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
2
Very excellent things are spoken of thee *
thou city of God.
3
I will think upon Rahab and Babylon *
with them that know me.
4
Behold ye the Philistines also *
and they of Tyre, with the Morians; lo, there was he born.
5
And of Sion it shall be reported that he was born in her *
and the most High shall stablish her.
6
The Lord shall rehearse it when he writeth up the people *
that he was born there.
7
The singers also and trumpeters shall he rehearse *
All my fresh springs shall be in thee.
