DBY Psalms 48 Chapter
48:1
{A Song; a Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.} Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the hill of his holiness.
48:2
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
48:3
God is known in her palaces as a high fortress.
48:4
For behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together;
48:5
They saw, -- so they marvelled; they were troubled, they fled in consternation:
48:6
Trembling took hold upon them there; anguish, as of a woman in travail.
48:7
With an east wind thou hast broken the ships of Tarshish.
48:8
As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God: God doth establish it for ever. Selah.
48:9
We have thought, O God, of thy loving-kindness, in the midst of thy temple.
48:10
According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
48:11
Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.
48:12
Walk about Zion, and go round about her: count the towers thereof;
48:13
Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces: that ye may tell it to the generation following.
48:14
For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide until death.
