¹ A Song; a Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our¹ God, in the hill of his holiness.

1. 48.1 Elohim

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 1}God is known in her palaces as a high fortress.

1. 48.3 Elohim

⁴ For behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together;

⁵ They saw, — so they marvelled; they were troubled, they fled in consternation:

⁶ Trembling took hold upon them there; anguish, as of a woman in travail.

⁷ With an east wind thou hast broken the ships of Tarshish.

⁸ As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our¹ God:²God doth establish it for ever. Selah.

⁹ We have thought, O¹ God, of thy loving-kindness, in the midst of thy temple.

1. 48.9 Elohim

¹⁰ According to thy name, O¹ God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

1. 48.10 Elohim

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: count the towers thereof;

¹³ Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces: that ye may tell it to the generation following.

¹⁴ For this¹ God is our² God for ever and ever; he will be our guide until death.
