Psalms 87
Bishops' Bible
1A psalme, the song of the sonnes of Corach. God loueth the gates of Sion more then all the dwellynges of Iacob: for her foundations are vpon the holy hilles.
2for her foundations are vpon the holy hilles.
3Uery excellent thinges are spoken of thee: O thou citie of God. Selah.
4I wyll make mention amongst those that knowe me, of Egypt and Babylon: behold also of Palestina and Tyre, with Ethiopia, and it shalbe sayde suche a man is borne there.
5But of Sion it shalbe reported, that very many be borne in her: and the most highest him selfe shall establishe her.
6God wyll number in the register of the people: euery one that is borne there. Selah.
7And the singers aswell as the players of instrumentes: yea al my fountaines are in thee.
