Chapter 48

1


 

  {A Song; a Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.} Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the hill of his holiness.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.  

 

 

--

3


 

  God is known in her palaces as a high fortress.  

 

 

--

4


 

  For behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together;  

 

 

--

5


 

  They saw, -- so they marvelled; they were troubled, they fled in consternation:  

 

 

--

6


 

  Trembling took hold upon them there; anguish, as of a woman in travail.  

 

 

--

7


 

  With an east wind thou hast broken the ships of Tarshish.  

 

 

--

8


 

  As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God: God doth establish it for ever. Selah.  

 

 

--

9


 

  We have thought, O God, of thy loving-kindness, in the midst of thy temple.  

 

 

--

10


 

  According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.  

 

 

--

11


 

  Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Walk about Zion, and go round about her: count the towers thereof;  

 

 

--

13


 

  Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces: that ye may tell it to the generation following.  

 

 

--

14


 

  For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide until death.
