|
|
1 |
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised
In the city of our God,
In His holy mountain.
|
|
|
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 |
God is in her palaces;
He is known as her refuge.
|
|
4 |
For behold, the kings assembled,
They passed by together.
|
|
5 |
They saw it, and so they marveled;
They were troubled, they hastened away.
|
|
6 |
Fear took hold of them there,
And pain, as of a woman in birth pangs,
|
|
7 |
As when You break the ships of Tarshish
With an east wind.
|
|
8 |
As we have heard,
So we have seen
In the city of the LORD of hosts,
In the city of our God:
God will establish it forever. Selah
|
|
9 |
We have thought, O God, on Your lovingkindness,
In the midst of Your temple.
|
|
10 |
According to Your name, O God,
So is Your praise to the ends of the earth;
Your right hand is full of righteousness.
|
|
11 |
Let Mount Zion rejoice,
Let the daughters of Judah be glad,
Because of Your judgments.
|
|
12 |
Walk about Zion,
And go all around her.
Count her towers;
|
|
13 |
Mark well her bulwarks;
Consider her palaces;
That you may tell it to the generation following.
|
|
14 |
For this is God,
Our God forever and ever;
He will be our guide
Even to death.
