Psalm 87 Thursday Morning 3
O city founded by him on the holy mountains, * Yahweh loves you, gates of Zion.
He who made perfect the glorious dwellings of Jacob * speaks in you, city of God:
I shall inscribe Egypt and Babylon * among those who acknowledge me,
even Philistia, Tyre and Ethiopia: * This one was born there.
But of Zion it will be said: * Each and every one was born in it, * and the Most High will make it secure.
Yahweh will write down in the register of the peoples, * This one was born there.
They shall sing and dance, * all who have suffered in you.
