Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

A Psalm of lthe Sons of Korah. A Song.

87 On mthe holy mount nstands the city he founded;

2 the Lord oloves the gates of Zion

more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.

3 pGlorious things of you are spoken,

O qcity of God. Selah

4 Among those who rknow me I mention sRahab and Babylon;

behold, Philistia and Tyre, with tCush1—

“This one was born there,” they say.

5 And of Zion it shall be said,

“This one and that one were born in her”;

for the Most High himself will uestablish her.

6 The Lord records as he vregisters the peoples,

“This one was born there.” Selah

7 wSingers and xdancers alike say,

“All my ysprings are in you.”
