Psalm Chapter 48 Back NextPsalm 48 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of
Korah.
{48:1} Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
{48:2} Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole
earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.
{48:3} God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.
{48:4} For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.
{48:5} They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.
{48:6} Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.
{48:7} With the
east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
{48:8} As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of Yahweh of Armies, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever. Selah.
{48:9} We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the midst of your temple.
{48:10} As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
{48:11} Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of
Judah rejoice, Because of your judgments.
{48:12} Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers.
{48:13}
Mark well her
bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation.
{48:14} For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to
death.
