Psm48:1 [A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah]. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, His holy mountain.
Psm48:2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion [in] the far north, The city of the great King.
Psm48:3 God, in her palaces, Has made Himself known as a stronghold.
Psm48:4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.
Psm48:5 They saw [it], then they were amazed; They were terrified, they fled in alarm.
Psm48:6 Panic seized them there, Anguish, as of a woman in childbirth.
Psm48:7 With the east wind Thou dost break the ships of Tarshish.
Psm48:8 As we have heard, so have we seen In the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God; God will establish her forever. Selah.
Psm48:9 We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, In the midst of Thy temple.
Psm48:10 As is Thy name, O God, So is Thy praise to the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
Psm48:11 Let Mount Zion be glad, Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of Thy judgments.
Psm48:12 Walk about Zion, and go around her; Count her towers;
Psm48:13 Consider her ramparts; Go through her palaces; That you may tell [it] to the next generation.
Psm48:14 For such is God, Our God forever and ever; He will guide us until death.
Psm48:15
