48
1 “A psalm of the sons of Korah.” Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised In the city of our God, upon his holy mountain. 2 Beautiful in its elevation is Mount Zion, The joy of the whole earth; The joy of the farthest North is the city of the great king; 3 In her palaces God is known as a refuge. 4 For, lo! kings were assembled against it; They passed away together. 5 As soon as they saw, they were astonished; They were confounded, and hasted away. 6 There terror seized upon them,—Pain, as of a woman in travail; 7 As when the east wind breaketh in pieces The ships of Tarshish. 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 it for ever. [[Pause.]] 9 We think of thy loving-kindness, O God! In the midst of thy temple! 10 As thy name, O God! so thy praise, extendeth to the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness. 11 Mount Zion rejoiceth, The daughters of Judah exult, On account of thy righteous judgments. 12 Go round about Zion; number her towers; 13 Mark well her bulwarks; count her palaces; That ye may tell it to the next generation! 14 For this God is our God for ever and ever; He will be our guide unto death.
