Psalm 87: Fundamenta ejus

On the holy mountain stands the city he has founded; *

the LORD loves the gates of Zion

more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

Glorious things are spoken of you, *

O city of our God.

I count Egypt and Babylon among those who know me; *

behold Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia:

in Zion were they born.

Of Zion it shall be said, "Everyone was born in her, *

and the Most High himself shall sustain her."

The LORD will record as he enrolls the peoples, *

"These also were born there."

The singers and the dancers will say, *

"All my fresh springs are in you."
