Psalm 48

English Standard Version

Zion, the City of Our God

A Song. A Psalm of ^(A)the Sons of Korah.

48 ^(B)Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised
    in ^(C)the city of our God!
His ^(D)holy mountain, ²^(E)beautiful in elevation,
    is ^(F)the joy of all the earth,
Mount Zion, in the far north,
    ^(G)the city of the great King.
³Within her citadels God
    has made himself known as a fortress.

⁴For behold, ^(H)the kings assembled;
    they came on together.
⁵As soon as they saw it, they were astounded;
    they were in panic; they took to flight.
⁶^(I)Trembling took hold of them there,
    anguish ^(J)as of a woman in labor.
⁷By ^(K)the east wind you ^(L)shattered
    the ships of ^(M)Tarshish.
⁸As we have heard, so have we seen
    in the city of the Lord of hosts,
in ^(N)the city of our God,
    which God will ^(O)establish forever. Selah

⁹We have thought on your ^(P)steadfast love, O God,
    in the midst of your temple.
¹⁰As your ^(Q)name, O God,
    so your praise reaches to ^(R)the ends of the earth.
Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
¹¹    Let Mount ^(S)Zion be glad!
Let ^(T)the daughters of Judah rejoice
    because of your judgments!

¹²Walk about Zion, go around her,
    number her towers,
¹³consider well her ^(U)ramparts,
    go through her citadels,
^(V)that you may tell the next generation
¹⁴    that this is God,
our God forever and ever.
    He will ^(W)guide us forever.^[a]
