This One Was Born There
Read the Story
The title of Psalm 87 calls it a Psalm and Song by the sons of Korah. His foundation is in the holy mountains. Yahweh loves the gates of Zion. Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God.
God names many nations, like Babylon, Philistia, Tyre and Ethiopia. He says they will be among those who acknowledge him. Of each one it is said, This one was born there.
Yahweh will count, when he writes up the peoples. The singers and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.
