PSALM Forty Eight



A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. 

Great is the Lord, and most worthy of praise,

    in the city of our God, his holy mountain.

Beautiful in its loftiness,

    the joy of the whole earth,

like the heights of Zaphon is Mount Zion,

    the city of the Great King.

God is in her citadels;

    he has shown himself to be her fortress.

When the kings joined forces,

    when they advanced together,

they saw her and were astounded;

    they fled in terror.

Trembling seized them there,

    pain like that of a woman in labour.

You destroyed them like ships of Tarshish

    shattered by an east wind.

As we have heard,

    so we have seen

in the city of the Lord Almighty,

    in the city of our God:

God makes her secure

    for ever.

Within your temple, O God,

    we meditate on your unfailing love.

10 

Like your name, O God,

    your praise reaches to the ends of the earth;

    your right hand is filled with righteousness.

11 

Mount Zion rejoices,

    the villages of Judah are glad

    because of your judgments.

12 

Walk about Zion, go round her,

    count her towers,

13 

consider well her ramparts,

    view her citadels,

that you may tell of them

    to the next generation.

14 

For this God is our God for ever and ever;

    he will be our guide even to the end.

PSALM Forty Seven

 

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. 

Clap your hands, all you nations;

    shout to God with cries of joy.

For the Lord Most High is awesome,

    the great King over all the earth.

He subdued nations under us,

    peoples under our feet.

He chose our inheritance for us,

    the pride of Jacob, whom he loved.

God has ascended amid shouts of joy,

    the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets.

Sing praises to God, sing praises;

    sing praises to our King, sing praises.

For God is the King of all the earth;

    sing to him a psalm of praise.

God reigns over the nations;

    God is seated on his holy throne.

The nobles of the nations assemble

    as the people of the God of Abraham,

for the kings of the earth belong to God;

    he is greatly exalted.
