[ Read](/kjv/psalms/87)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/87)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/87) Audio

 1 His foundation *is* in the holy mountains.*

 2 The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

 3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.

 4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this *man* was born there.

 5 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

 6 The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, *that* this *man* was born there. Selah.

 7 As well the singers as the players on instruments *shall be there:* all my springs *are* in thee.
