Psalm 48:1-9 (Revised Standard Version)
View In My Bible
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,
2
beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King.
3
Within her citadels God has shown himself a sure defense.
4
For lo, the kings assembled, they came on together.
5
As soon as they saw it, they were astounded, they were in panic, they took to flight;
6
trembling took hold of them there, anguish as of a woman in travail.
7
By the east wind thou didst shatter the ships of Tarshish.
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 establishes for ever. [Selah]
9
We have thought on thy steadfast love, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
