PS-48:1 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.

PS-48:2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth,

[is] mount Zion,

[on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

PS-48:3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

PS-48:4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by

together.

PS-48:5 They saw [it, and] so they marvelled; they were troubled,

 [and] hasted

away.

PS-48:6 Fear took hold upon them there, [and] pain, as of a

woman in travail.

PS-48:7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

PS-48:8 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.

PS-48:9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the

midst of thy

temple.

PS-48:10 According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise unto

the ends of the

earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

PS-48:11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be

glad, because

of thy judgments.

PS-48:12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the

towers thereof.

PS-48:13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that

ye may tell

[it] to the generation following.

PS-48:14 For this God [is] our God for ever and ever: he will be

our guide

[even] unto death.
