Psalms 48:1-7 ▼

1 A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah. Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.

3 God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.

4 For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.

5 They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.

6 Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.

7 With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
