上帝的城——锡安

可拉后裔的诗。

48 耶和华何等伟大!
我们的上帝在祂的城中,
在祂的圣山上当大受颂赞。
北面的锡安山雄伟壮丽,
令世人欢喜,
是伟大君王的城。
上帝在城内的宫中,
祂亲自做这城的庇护。

Psalm 48[a]

A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah.

Great is the Lord,(A) and most worthy of praise,(B)
    in the city of our God,(C) his holy mountain.(D)

Beautiful(E) in its loftiness,
    the joy of the whole earth,
like the heights of Zaphon[b](F) is Mount Zion,(G)
    the city of the Great King.(H)
God is in her citadels;(I)
    he has shown himself to be her fortress.(J)
