Psalms 87

Psalm 87, by the sons of Korah, celebrates Zion, the city YHWH founded on the holy mountain, which He loves more than all Jacob's dwellings, with glorious things spoken of it.[1][3] It declares that YHWH will record nations like Rahab, Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Cush among those who know Him as born in Zion, establishing her as the spiritual birthplace of all peoples, where singers proclaim 'All my fountains are in you.'[1][2][3]
