⁴ Then the kings assembled;
    they came on together.^(D)
5 As soon as they saw it, they were astounded;
    they were in panic; they took to flight;^(E)
6 trembling took hold of them there,
    pains as of a woman in labor,
⁷ as when an east wind shatters
    the ships of Tarshish.^(F)
8 As we have heard, so have we seen
    in the city of the Lord of hosts,
in the city of our God,
    which God establishes forever. Selah

⁹ We ponder your steadfast love, O God,
    in the midst of your temple.
¹⁰ Your name, O God, like your praise,
    reaches to the ends of the earth.
Your right hand is filled with victory.^(G)
11     Let Mount Zion be glad;
let the towns^[a] of Judah rejoice
    because of your judgments.^(H)

¹² Walk about Zion; go all around it;
    count its towers;
¹³ consider well its ramparts;
    go through its citadels,
that you may tell the next generation^(I)
14     that this is God,
our God forever and ever.
    He will be our guide forever.^(J)
