Psalm

48 - A Song and Psalm
for the sons of Korah.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to
be praised in the city of our God,

in the mountain of his holiness.

Beautiful for situation, the joy of the
whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides

of the north, the city of the great King.

God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

For, lo, the kings were assembled,
they passed by together.

They saw it, and so they marvelled;
they were troubled, and hasted away.

Fear took hold upon them there,
and pain, as of a woman in travail.

Thou breakest the ships of
Tarshish with an east wind.

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.

Selah.

We have thought of thy lovingkindness,
O God, in the midst of thy temple.

According to thy name, O God, so is thy
praise unto the ends of the earth: thy

right hand is full of righteousness.

Let mount Zion rejoice, let
the daughters of Judah be

glad, because of thy judgments.

Walk about Zion, and go round
about her: tell the towers thereof.

Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider
her palaces; that ye may tell

it to the generation following.

For this God is our God for ever and ever:
he will be our guide even unto death.
