Psalm 87
1 ఆయన పట్టణపు పునాది పరిశుద్ధ పర్వతములమీద వేయబడియున్నది
2 యాకోబు నివాసములన్నిటికంటె సీయోను గుమ్మ ములు యెహోవాకు ప్రియములై యున్నవి
3 దేవుని పట్టణమా, మనుష్యులు నిన్నుగూర్చి మిక్కిలి గొప్ప సంగతులు చెప్పుకొందురు.(సెలా.)
4 రహబును ఐగుప్తు బబులోనును నాకు పరిచయులని నేను తెలియజెప్పుచున్నాను ఫిలిష్తీయ తూరు కూషులను చూడుము వీరు అచ్చట జన్మించిరని యందురు.
5 ప్రతి జనము దానిలోనే జన్మించెననియు సర్వోన్నతుడు తానే దాని స్థిరపరచెననియు సీయోనునుగూర్చి చెప్పుకొందురు.
6 యెహోవా జనముల సంఖ్య వ్రాయించునప్పుడు ఈ జనము అక్కడ జన్మించెనని సెలవిచ్చును. (సెలా.)
7 పాటలు పాడుచు వాద్యములు వాయించుచు మా ఊటలన్నియు నీయందే యున్నవని వారం దురు.
1 A Psalm or Song for the sons of Korah.
2 His foundation is in the holy mountains.
3 The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
4 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
5 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.
6 And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.
7 The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.
8 As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.
0 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
4 Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.
10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
13 Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me: O Lord, make haste to help me.
14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified.
17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
