OET interlinear PSA 87:3

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נִ֭כְבָּדוֹת מְדֻבָּ֣ר בָּ֑⁠ךְ

(Some words not found in UHB: glorious spoken on/over=you(fs) (a)_city the=ʼElohīm selah )

The expression Glorious things are spoken of you uses a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is God. Alternate translation: [God declares glorious things about you]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / apostrophe

מְדֻבָּ֣ר בָּ֑⁠ךְ עִ֖יר הָ⁠אֱלֹהִ֣ים

(Some words not found in UHB: glorious spoken on/over=you(fs) (a)_city the=ʼElohīm selah )

The psalmist is speaking to the city of Zion as if it could hear him. He is doing this to communicate to the people listening to him that he feels very strongly about how honored Zion is. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate these words as if the psalmist were speaking to people about Zion. Alternate translation: [spoken about Zion, the city of God]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

עִ֖יר הָ⁠אֱלֹהִ֣ים

(a)_city the=ʼElohīm

The psalmist is using this possessive form to mean that Zion is the city where God dwells. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [city where God dwells]
