A Song. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.

[1] 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.
[8] As we have heard, so we have seen,
in the city of Yahweh of Armies, in the city of our God.
God will establish it forever. Selah.
[9] We have thought about your loving kindness, God,
in the middle of your temple.
[10] As is your name, God,
so is your praise to the ends of the earth.
Your right hand is full of righteousness.
[11] Let Mount Zion be glad!
Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments.
[12] Walk about Zion, and go around her.
Number its towers.
[13] Notice her bulwarks.
Consider her palaces,
that you may tell it to the next generation.
[14] For this God is our God forever and ever.
He will be our guide even to death.
King James Version

A Song H7892 and Psalm H4210 for the sons H1121 of Korah. H7141

[1] Great H1419 is the Lord, H3068 and greatly H3966 to be praised H1984
In the city H5892 of our God, H430 in the mountain H2022 of his holiness. H6944
[2] Beautiful H3303 for situation, H5131 the joy H4885 of the whole earth, H776
Is mount H2022 Zion, H6726 on the sides H3411 of the north, H6828
The city H7151 of the great H7227 King. H4428
[3] God H430 is known H3045 in her palaces H759 for a refuge. H4869
[4] For, lo, the kings H4428 were assembled, H3259
They passed by H5674 together. H3162
[5] They saw H7200 it, and so they marvelled; H8539
They were troubled, H926 and hasted away. H2648
[6] Fear H7461 took hold H270 upon them there,
And pain, H2427
as of a woman in travail. H3205
[7] Thou breakest H7665 the ships H591 of Tarshish H8659
With an east H6921 wind. H7307
[8] As we have heard, H8085 so H3651 have we seen H7200 in the city H5892 of the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 in the city H5892 of our God: H430
God H430 will establish H3559 it for H5704 ever. H5769 Selah. H5542
[9] We have thought H1819 of thy lovingkindness, H2617 O God, H430
In the midst H7130 of thy temple. H1964
[10] According to thy name, H8034 O God, H430 so is thy praise H8416 unto the ends H7099 of the earth: H776
Thy right hand H3225 is full H4390 of righteousness. H6664
[11] Let mount H2022 Zion H6726 rejoice, H8055
Let the daughters H1323 of Judah H3063 be glad, H1523 because of thy judgments. H4941
[12] Walk about H5437 Zion, H6726 and go round about H5362 her:
Tell H5608
the towers H4026 thereof.
[13] Mark H7896 ye well H3820 her bulwarks, H2430§ consider H6448§ her palaces; H759
That ye may tell H5608 it to the generation H1755 following. H314
[14] For this God H430 is our God H430 for ever H5769 and ever: H5703
He will be our guide H5090 even unto death. H4192
