48:1  A Song. A Psalm of the Korahites. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised in the city of our God. His holy mountain,
48:2  beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King.
48:3  Within its citadels God has shown himself a sure defence.
48:4  Then the kings assembled, they came on together.
48:5  As soon as they saw it, they were astounded; they were in panic, they took to flight;
48:6  trembling took hold of them there, pains as of a woman in labour,
48:7  as when an east wind shatters the ships of Tarshish.
48:8  As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God, which God establishes for ever.Selah
48:9  We ponder your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of your temple.
48:10  Your name, O God, like your praise, reaches to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is filled with victory.
48:11  Let Mount Zion be glad, let the towns of Judah rejoice because of your judgements.
48:12  Walk about Zion, go all around it, count its towers,
48:13  consider well its ramparts; go through its citadels, that you may tell the next generation
48:14  that this is God, our God for ever and ever. He will be our guide for ever.
