Yahweh Loves the Gates of Zion

A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A song.

1He has founded His city

on the holy mountains.

2Yahweh loves the gates of Zion

more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3Glorious things are ascribed to you,

O city of God.

Selah

4“I will mention Rahab and Babylon

among those who know Me—

along with Philistia, Tyre, and Cush—

when I say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”

  • PS 87:4[NOTE]RAHAB here is a poetic name for Egypt, not Rahab of Jericho. It means pride or storm, and it is also a sea monster's name, Isaiah 51:9.

5And it will be said of Zion:

“This one and that one were born in her,

and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

6Yahweh will record in the register of the peoples:

“This one was born in Zion.”

Selah

7Singers and pipers will proclaim,

“All my springs of joy are in You.”

Frequently asked questions

What is TOM?

TOM is The Owner's Manual, a free translation built on the Berean Standard Bible. It uses modern measurements, prints Yahweh where the Hebrew has God's name, and puts words missing from the earliest manuscripts in [square brackets]. Every change is listed in How It Was Translated.

What do the colors mean?

Each color marks one kind of verse: lime green for prophecies about the Messiah, teal for miracles, sand for archaeology, and so on. Tap any color in the chapter key to turn it off. Use Customize to choose exactly which ones you see.

Can I read without highlights?

Yes. Turn off the Highlights switch at the top for plain text. Your choice is remembered on this device.

Do the other translations have the colors too?

Yes. The colors, red letters, bloodline names and study notes come from TOM and are matched to every other translation verse by verse, so you can read the KJV, NIV or any other translation here with the same study helps.

Is this free?

Yes. The whole Bible is free to read online. The printed Owner's Manual Study Bible is coming soon.
