- Kapitel 87 -

The Lord loves the gates of Zion

1
The city is established on his holy mountain.
2
Yahweh loves that city, Jerusalem, more than he loves any other place in Israel.
3
All you people in Jerusalem, other people say wonderful things about your city.
4
And Yahweh said, “I will talk of Rahab and Babylon and the people there who know me. There are some who know me among the people of Egypt and Babylonia, and they live in the lands of Philistia and Tyre and Ethiopia, and they will say, ‘Our home is Jerusalem and our land is Zion.’”
5
Concerning Zion, people will say, “All of these people who were born far away, they call Jerusalem their home, and God Almighty will cause that city to remain strong.”
6
Yahweh will write a list of the names of the people of various groups who belong to him, and he will say that he considers them all to be citizens of Jerusalem.
7
They will all dance and sing, saying, “Jerusalem is the source of all our blessings.”
