THE BIBLE
Psalms
Chapter 48

48:1 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
48:2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion, on the north sides, The city of the great King.
48:3 God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.
48:4 For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.
48:5 They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed, They hurried away.
48:6 Trembling took hold of them there, Pain, as of a woman in travail.
48:7 With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
48:8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Yahweh of Hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever. Selah.
48:9 We have thought about your loving kindness, God, In the midst of your temple.
48:10 As is your name, God, So is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
48:11 Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of your judgments.
48:12 Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers;
48:13 Mark well her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, That you may tell it to the next generation.
48:14 For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.
