Psalms 48

(CLV) Psalms 48

A Song. A Psalm for the Sons of Korah

1 Great is Yahweh, and praised exceedingly In the city of our Elohim, His holy mountain; 2 Lovely of undulation, The elation of the entire earth is Mount Zion, The flanks of the north, the town of the great King. 3 Elohim, in her citadels He is known as an Impregnable Retreat. 4 For behold, the kings, they congregated; They crossed over together. 5 They themselves saw, so they were amazed; They were filled with panic; they hurried away. 6 Quivering had taken hold of them there, Travail like one giving birth, 7 Like the east wind, Which broke up the ships of Tarshish. 8 Just as we had heard, so we saw, In the city of Yahweh of hosts, In the city of our Elohim. Elohim, He shall establish it for the eon. 9 O Elohim, we have mused upon Your benignity Within Your Temple. 10 As is Your Name, O Elohim, so is Your praise Unto the ends of the earth; Your right hand is filled with righteousness. 11 Mount Zion shall rejoice, The daughters of Judah shall exult, On account of Your judgments, O Yahweh. 12 Go around Zion, and encompass her; Count off her towers; 13 Set your heart on her rampart; Survey her citadels, That you may recount it to the next generation. 14 For this is Elohim, our Elohim, for the eon and further; He Himself shall lead us for the eons.
