1.6 KiB
Psalm 48 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,
- beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King.
- Within her citadels God has made himself known as a fortress.
- For behold, the kings assembled; they came on together.
- As soon as they saw it, they were astounded; they were in panic; they took to flight.
- Trembling took hold of them there, anguish as of a woman in labor.
- By the east wind you shattered the ships of Tarshish.
- As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God, which God will establish forever. Selah
- We have thought on your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of your temple.
- As your name, O God, so your praise reaches to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
- Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments!
- Walk about Zion, go around her, number her towers,
- consider well her ramparts, go through her citadels, that you may tell the next generation
- that this is God, our God forever and ever. He will guide us forever.
