¹ A Song, A Psalm for the Sons of Korah. Great is Jehovah, and exceedingly to be praised in the city of our God, His holy mountain.² Beautiful on high, the joy of all the earth, is Mount Zion, in the sides of the north, the city of the great King.³ God is known in her strongholds for a refuge.⁴ For, lo, the kings met together; they passed by together;⁵ they saw, so they marveled; they were troubled and fled away.⁶ Trembling and pain seized them there, like a woman in labor.⁷ You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

⁸ As we have heard, so we have seen in the city of Jehovah of Hosts, in the city of our God. God establishes it forever. Selah.⁹ We have thought on Your lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Your temple.¹⁰ According to Your name, O God, so is Your praise to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness.¹¹ Mount Zion shall be glad; the daughters of Judah shall shout for joy because of Your judgments.¹² Walk around Zion; yea, go all around it; count its towers;¹³ set your heart on its ramparts; pass between its strongholds; in order that you may report to the coming generation.¹⁴ For this God is our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even unto death.
