Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 87

'"`UNIQ--named-00000000-QINU`"'¹ A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

'"`UNIQ--named-00000001-QINU`"'² HaShem loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

'"`UNIQ--named-00000002-QINU`"'³ Glorious things are spoken of Thee, O city of G-d. Selah

'"`UNIQ--named-00000003-QINU`"'⁴ 'I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know Me; behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.'

'"`UNIQ--named-00000004-QINU`"'⁵ But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her; and the Most High Himself doth establish her.'

'"`UNIQ--named-00000005-QINU`"'⁶ HaShem shall count in the register of the peoples: 'This one was born there.' Selah

'"`UNIQ--named-00000006-QINU`"'⁷ And whether they sing or dance, all my thoughts are in Thee.
