Psalm 87

In Praise of Jerusalem

1 The Lord built his city on the sacred hill;

2 more than any other place in Israel

he loves the city of Jerusalem.

3 Listen, city of God,

to the wonderful things he says about you:

4 β€œI will include Egypt and Babylonia

when I list the nations that obey me;

the people of Philistia, Tyre, and Ethiopia

I will number among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.”

5 Of Zion it will be said

that all nations belong there

and that the Almighty will make her strong.

6 The Lord will write a list of the peoples

and include them all as citizens of Jerusalem.

7 They dance and sing,

β€œIn Zion is the source of all our blessings.”
