as well as the cattle that graze on a thousand hills. ¹ 

Psalms 87:1

Psalm 87 ² 

Written by the Korahites; a psalm, a song.

87:1 The Lord’s city is in the holy hills. ³ 

[50:10]  ¹ tn Heb “[the] animals on a thousand hills.” The words “that graze” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The term בְּהֵמוֹה (bÿhemot, “animal”) refers here to cattle (see Ps 104:14).

[87:1]  ² sn Psalm 87. The psalmist celebrates the Lord’s presence in Zion and the special status of its citizens.

[87:1]  ³ tn Heb “his foundation [is] in the hills of holiness.” The expression “his foundation” refers here by metonymy to the Lord’s dwelling place in Zion. The “hills” are the ones surrounding Zion (see Pss 125:2; 133:3).
