Psalms:48
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Great is Jehovah ,
and greatly to be praised ,
in the city of our God ,
his sacred mountain .
*
His situation if beautiful .
Mount Zion is the joy of the whole earth .
The city of the great King is in the far reaches of the north .
*
God is in his citadel .
He has made himself known .
*
Behold ,
the kings have assembled .
And they passed by together .
*
They saw and then they were amazed .
They were terrified and they fled in fear .
*
Panic seized them there ,
Anguish ,
like a woman in childbirth .
*
You break the ships of Tarshish using the east wind .
*
In the city of Jehovah of Hosts we have seen as we have heard .
God will establish the city of God forever .
*
We have thought about your loving-kindness ,
O God ,
in the midst of your Temple .
*
Like your name ,
O God ,
your praise reaches to the ends of the earth .
Your right hand is filled with righteousness .
*
May Mount Zion be glad and the cities of Judah rejoice because of your judgments .
*
Walk around Zion .
Go around it .
Count its towers .
*
Examine its embankments .
Inspect its watchtowers .
Then you can tell the next generation ,
*
This God is our God forever and ever .
He will lead us until death .
