Psalms 48 — YLT

48Verse 1A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah. Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, In the city of our God — His holy hill.^{Verse 2}Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king.^{Verse 3}God in her high places is known for a tower.^{Verse 4}For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,^{Verse 5}They have seen — so they have marvelled, They have been troubled, they were hastened away.^{Verse 6}Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.^{Verse 7}By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish.^{Verse 8}As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her — to the age. Selah.^{Verse 9}We have thought, O God, of Thy kindness, In the midst of Thy temple,^{Verse 10}As [is] Thy name, O God, so [is] Thy praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness hath filled Thy right hand.^{Verse 11}Rejoice doth Mount Zion, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Thy judgments.^{Verse 12}Compass Zion, and go round her, count her towers,^{Verse 13}Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that ye recount to a later generation,^{Verse 14}That this God [is] our God — To the age and for ever, He — he doth lead us over death!
