Psalme 48

¹[A song, and Psalme for the sonnes of Korah.] Great is the Lord, and greatly to bee praised in the citie of our God, in the mountaine of his holinesse.

²Beautifull for situation, the ioy of the whole earth is mout Sion, on the sides of the North, the citie of the great King.

³God is knowen in her palaces for a refuge.

⁴For loe, the kings were assembled: they passed by together.

⁵They sawe it, and so they marueiled, they were troubled and hasted away.

⁶Feare tooke holde vpon them there, and paine, as of a woman in trauaile.

⁷Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an East wind.

⁸As we haue heard, so haue wee seene in the citie of the Lord of hosts, in the citie of our God, God will establish it for euer. Selah,

⁹Wee haue thought of thy louing kindnesse, O God, in the middest of thy Temple.

¹⁰According to thy Name, O God, so is thy praise vnto the endes of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousnesse.

¹¹Let mount Sion reioyce, let the daughters of Iudah be glad, because of thy iudgements.

¹²Walke about Sion, and goe round about her: tell the towres thereof.

¹³Marke yee well her bulwarkes, consider her palaces; that yee may tell it to the generation following.

¹⁴For this God is our God for euer, and euer; he will be our guide euen vnto death.
