The Bible
Psalm 87
A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song.
1His foundation is in the holy mountains.
2ForeverOne
3Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God
4I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: "This one was born there." 5Yes, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one was born in her;" the Most High himself will establish her.
6ForeverOne
7Those who sing as well as those who dance say, "All my springs are in you."
