Sion, madre dei popoli

87 Dei figli di Core. Salmo. Canto.

Le sue fondamenta sono sui monti santi;
il Signore ama le porte di Sion
più di tutte le dimore di Giacobbe.
Di te si dicono cose stupende,
città di Dio.
Ricorderò Raab e Babilonia fra quelli che mi conoscono;
ecco, Palestina, Tiro ed Etiopia:
tutti là sono nati.
Si dirà di Sion: «L'uno e l'altro è nato in essa
e l'Altissimo la tiene salda».

Il Signore scriverà nel libro dei popoli:
«Là costui è nato».
E danzando canteranno:
«Sono in te tutte le mie sorgenti».

可拉后裔的诗歌。

锡安颂

87 耶和华所立的根基在圣山上。
耶和华爱锡安的门,
    胜于爱雅各一切的住处。
 神的城啊,
    有荣耀的事是指着你说的。(细拉)

我要提起拉哈伯[a]巴比伦人,
    是在认识我之中的;
看哪,非利士推罗古实人,
    个个生在那里。
论到锡安,必有话说:
    “这一个、那一个都生在其中”;
    而且至高者必亲自坚立这城。
当耶和华记录万民的时候,
    他要写出人的出生地。(细拉)

歌唱的、跳舞的,都要说:
    “我的泉源都在你里面。”[b]
