Psalm 87
English Standard Version

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

A Psalm of (A)the Sons of Korah. A Song.

87 On (B)the holy mount (C)stands the city he founded;
2     the Lord (D)loves the gates of Zion
    more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.
3 (E)Glorious things of you are spoken,
    O (F)city of God. Selah

4 Among those who (G)know me I mention (H)Rahab and Babylon;
    behold, Philistia and Tyre, with (I)Cush[a]—
    “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 (J)establish her.
6 The Lord records as he (K)registers the peoples,
    “This one was born there.” Selah

7 (L)Singers and (M)dancers alike say,
    “All my (N)springs are in you.”

Salmos 87
La Biblia de las Américas

Privilegios del ciudadano de Sión

Salmo de los hijos de Coré. Cántico.

87 En los montes santos están sus cimientos(A).
2 El Señor ama las puertas de Sión(B)
más que todas las otras moradas de Jacob.
3 Cosas gloriosas se dicen de ti(C),
oh ciudad de Dios(D): (Selah[a])
4 Mencionaré a Rahab[b](E) y a Babilonia entre[c] los que me conocen;
he aquí, Filistea y Tiro(F) con Etiopía[d](G); de sus moradores se dirá:
«Este nació allí».
5 Pero de Sión se dirá: Este y aquel nacieron en ella;
y el Altísimo mismo la establecerá(H).
6 El Señor contará al inscribir los pueblos(I):
Este nació allí. (Selah)
7 Entonces tanto los cantores(J) como los flautistas[e](K), dirán:
En ti están todas mis fuentes de gozo(L).
