Psalm 48


The Glory of God in Zion

A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised
In the acity of our God,
In His holy mountain.

2
aBeautiful in 1elevation,
The joy of the whole earth,
Is Mount Zion on the sides of the north,
The city of the great King.

3
God is in her palaces;
He is known as her refuge.


4
For behold, athe kings assembled,
They passed by together.

5
They saw it, and so they marveled;
They were troubled, they hastened away.

6
Fear atook hold of them there,
And pain, as of a woman in birth pangs,

7
As when You break the aships of Tarshish
With an east wind.


8
As we have heard,
So we have seen
In the city of the Lord of hosts,
In the city of our God:
God will aestablish it forever.
Selah


9
We have thought, O God, on aYour lovingkindness,
In the midst of Your temple.

10
According to aYour name, O God,
So is Your praise to the ends of the earth;
Your right hand is full of righteousness.

11
Let Mount Zion rejoice,
Let the daughters of Judah be glad,
Because of Your judgments.


12
Walk about Zion,
And go all around her.
Count her towers;

13
Mark well her bulwarks;
Consider her palaces;
That you may atell it to the generation following.

14
For this is God,
Our God forever and ever;
aHe will be our guide
1Even to death.
