Psalms 87:3

1 He has founded His city on the holy mountains.

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

Glorious things are ascribed to you, O city of God. Selah

4 “I will mention Rahab and Babylon among those who know Me— along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush — when I say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”

5 And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
