Chapter 87 - Zion glories in her children

1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 The LORD loveth the gates (of Zion) more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God.

Selah.

4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

5 And of Zion it shall be said, 

This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there.

Selah.

7 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
