A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the Lord, 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 sides of the north, The city of the great King.
3
God is in her palaces; He is known as her refuge.
4
For behold, the kings assembled, They passed by together.
5
They saw it, and so they marveled; They were troubled, they hastened away.
6
Fear took hold of them there, And pain, as of a woman in birth pangs,
7
As when You break the ships of Tarshish With an east wind.
8
As we have heard, So we have seen In the city of the Lord of hosts, In the city of our God: God will establish it forever. Selah
