^1 (0) A song. A psalm of the descendants of Korach:

^2 (1) Great is Adonai
and greatly to be praised,
in the city of our God,
his holy mountain,
^3 (2) beautiful in its elevation,
the joy of all the earth,
Mount Tziyon, in the far north,
the city of the great king.
^4 (3) In its citadels God
has been revealed as a strong defense.
^5 (4) For the kings met by agreement;
together they advanced.
^6 (5) They saw and were filled with consternation;
terrified, they took to flight.
^7 (6) Trembling took hold of them,
pains like those of a woman in labor,
^8 (7) as when the wind out of the east
wrecks the "Tarshish" ships.
^9 (8) We heard it, and now we see for ourselves
in the city of Adonai-Tzva'ot,
in the city of our God.
May God establish it forever. (Selah)

^10 (9) God, within your temple
we meditate on your grace.
^11 (10) God, your praise, like your name,
extends to the ends of the earth.
Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
^12 (11) Let Mount Tziyon rejoice,
let the daughters of Y'hudah be glad,
because of your judgment [on the enemy].

^13 (12) Walk through Tziyon, go all around it;
count how many towers it has.
^14 (13) Note its ramparts, pass through its citadels,
so that you can tell generations to come
^15 (14) that such is God, our God forever;
he will guide us eternally.
