Psalms:48
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Great is the LORD ,
and greatly to be praised in the city of our God ,
in the mountain of his holiness .
*
Beautiful for situation ,
the joy of the whole earth ,
is mount Zion ,
on the sides of the north ,
the city of the great King .
*
God is known in her palaces for a refuge .
*
For ,
see ,
the kings were assembled ,
they passed by together .
*
They saw it ,
and so they marveled ;
they were troubled ,
and hurried away .
*
Fear took hold on them there ,
and pain ,
as of a woman in travail .
*
You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind .
*
As we have heard ,
so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts ,
in the city of our God :
God will establish it for ever .
Selah .
*
We have thought of your loving kindness ,
O God ,
in the middle of your temple .
*
According to your name ,
O God ,
so is your praise to the ends of the earth :
your right hand is full of righteousness .
*
Let mount Zion rejoice ,
let the daughters of Judah be glad ,
because of your judgments .
*
Walk about Zion ,
and go round about her :
tell the towers thereof .
*
Mark you well her bulwarks ,
consider her palaces ;
that you may tell it to the generation following .
*
For this God is our God for ever and ever :
he will be our guide even to death .
