Psalm 87:4-6
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
4 For my soul is filled with evils: and my life hath drawn nigh to hell.
5 I am counted among them that go down to the pit: I am become as a man without help,
6 Free among the dead. Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cast off from thy hand.

Psalm 87:4-6
New International Version
4 “I will record Rahab[a](A) and Babylon
among those who acknowledge me—
Philistia(B) too, and Tyre(C), along with Cush[b]—
and will say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”[c](D)
5 Indeed, of Zion it will be said,
“This one and that one were born in her,
and the Most High himself will establish her.”
6 The Lord will write in the register(E) of the peoples:
“This one was born in Zion.”
