Psalms 48

Writings

48 ‎(1) A song. A psalm of the Korahites.

‎(2) The LORD is great and much acclaimed

in the city of our God,

His holy mountain— ‎(3) fair-crested, joy of all the earth,

Mount Zion, summit of Zaphon,

city of the great king. ‎(4) Through its citadels, God has made Himself known as a haven. ‎(5) See, the kings joined forces;

they advanced together. ‎(6) At the mere sight of it they were stunned,

they were terrified, they panicked; ‎(7) they were seized there with a trembling,

like a woman in the throes of labor, ‎(8) as the Tarshish fleet was wrecked

in an easterly gale. ‎(9) The likes of what we heard we have now witnessed

in the city of the LORD of hosts,

in the city of our God—

may God preserve it forever! *Selah*.

‎(10) In Your temple, God,

we meditate upon Your faithful care. ‎(11) The praise of You, God, like Your name,

reaches to the ends of the earth;

Your right hand is filled with beneficence. ‎(12) Let Mount Zion rejoice!

Let the towns of Judah exult,

because of Your judgments.

‎(13) Walk around Zion,

circle it;

count its towers, ‎(14) take note of its ramparts;

go through its citadels,

that you may recount it to a future age. ‎(15) For God—He is our God forever;

He will lead us evermore.
