1 | Great is Yahweh, 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 north sides, the city of the great King. |
3 | God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge. |
4 | For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together. |
5 | They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away. |
6 | Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail. |
7 | With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish. |
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. |
9 | We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the midst of your temple. |
10 | As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness. |
11 | Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of your judgments. |
12 | Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers. |
13 | Mark well her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation. |
14 | For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death. Psalm 49 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. |
