Psalms 48
King James Version

1 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised
in the city of our God,
in the mountain of his holiness.​
2 Beautiful for situation,
the joy of the whole earth,
is mount Zion, on the sides of the north,
the city of the great King.​
3 God is known in her palaces
for a refuge.​

4
For, lo, the kings were assembled,
they passed by together.​
5 They saw it, and so they marvelled;
they were troubled, and hasted away.​
6 Fear took hold upon them there,
and pain, as of a woman in travail.​
7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish
with an east wind.​

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

9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God,
in the midst of thy temple.​
10 According to thy name, O God,
so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth:
thy right hand is full of righteousness.​
11 Let mount Zion rejoice,
let the daughters of Judah be glad,
because of thy judgments.​

12 Walk about Zion,
and go round about her:
tell the towers thereof.​
13 Mark ye well her bulwarks,
consider her palaces;
that ye may tell it to the generation following.​
14 For this God
is our God for ever and ever:
he will be our guide
even unto death.
