The Beauty and Glory of Zion.

A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah.

48 
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised

In the city of our God, His holy mountain.

2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth,

Is Mount Zion in the far north,

The city of the great King.

3 In its palaces,

God has made Himself known as a stronghold.

4 For, behold, the kings arrived,

They passed by together.

5 They saw it, then they were amazed;

They were terrified, they fled in a hurry.

6 [a]Panic seized them there,

Anguish, as that of a woman in childbirth.

7 With the east wind

You smash the ships of Tarshish.

8 Just as we have heard, so have we seen

In the city of the Lord of armies, in the city of our God;

God will establish her forever. Selah

9 We have thought over Your goodness, God,

In the midst of Your temple.

10 As is Your name, God,

So is Your praise to the ends of the earth;

Your right hand is full of righteousness.

11 Mount Zion shall be glad,

The daughters of Judah shall rejoice

Because of Your judgments.

12 Walk around Zion and encircle her;

Count her towers;

13 Consider her ramparts;

Go through her palaces,

So that you may tell of her to the next generation.

14 For [b]such is God,

Our God forever and ever;

He will lead us [c]until death.
