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! 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 her citadels God has made himself known as a fortress.
48:4  For behold, 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, anguish as of a woman in labor.
48:7  By the east wind you shattered 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 will establish forever. Selah
48:9  We have thought on your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of your temple.
48:10  As your name, O God, so your praise reaches to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
48:11  Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments!
48:12  Walk about Zion, go around her, number her towers,
48:13  consider well her ramparts, go through her citadels, that you may tell the next generation
48:14  that this is God, our God forever and ever. He will guide us forever.
