48:1  A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in His holy mountain.
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 citadels as a refuge.
48:4  For the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
48:5  They saw it, and so they were astounded; they were alarmed, they hurried away.
48:6  Trembling seized them there, and pain like a woman in labor;
48:7  You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
48:8  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 forever. Selah
48:9  We have thought of Your lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Your temple.
48:10  According to Your name, O God, so is Your praise to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness.
48:11  May Mount Zion rejoice, may the daughters of Judah be glad, because of Your judgments.
48:12  Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count her towers;
48:13  mark well her bulwarks; consider her citadels; that you may tell it to the generation following.
48:14  For this God is our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death.
