1Psalm 48 The Splendor of the Invincible City - A psalm of the Korahites. A song.
2I - Great is the LORD and highly praised in the city of our God: His holy mountain,
3fairest of heights, the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, the heights of Zaphon, the city of the great king.
4II - God is in its citadel, renowned as a stronghold.
5See! The kings assembled, together they advanced.
6When they looked they were astounded; terrified, they were put to flight!
7Trembling seized them there, anguish, like a woman’s labor,
8As when the east wind wrecks the ships of Tarshish!
9III - What we had heard we have now seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, In the city of our God, which God establishes forever. Selah
10We ponder, O God, your mercy within your temple
11Like your name, O God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is fully victorious.
12Mount Zion is glad! The daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments!
13IV - Go about Zion, walk all around it, note the number of its towers.
14Consider the ramparts, examine its citadels, that you may tell future generations:
15That this is God, our God for ever and ever. He will lead us until death.
