Psalms 87:4-7

⁴Some of those who know about God are the people of Egypt and Babylonia, and also the people of Philistia and Tyre and Ethiopia; some day they all will say, “ Although I was not born in Jerusalem, because I belong to Yahweh, it is as though I was born there.”

⁵And concerning Jerusalem, people will say “It is as though everyone was born there, and Almighty God will cause that city to remain strong/safe/secure.”

⁶Yahweh will write a list of the names of the people of various groups who belong to him, and he will say that he considers them all to be citizens of Jerusalem.

⁷They will all dance and sing, saying, “Jerusalem is the source of all our blessings.”
