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