Psalms 48

1  Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

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.

3  God hath made himself known in her palaces for a refuge.

4  For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.

5  They saw it, then were they amazed; They were dismayed, they hasted away.

6  Trembling took hold of them there, Pain, as of a woman in travail.

7  With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

8  As we have heard, so have we seen In the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah

9  We have thought on thy lovingkindness, O God, In the midst of thy temple.

10  As is thy name, O God, So is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
