• A Song. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. - Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised, in the town of our God, in his holy mountain.

By you the ships of Tarshish are broken as by an east wind.

As your name is, O God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth; your right hand is full of righteousness.

Let there be joy in the mountain of Zion, and let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of your wise decisions.

Beautiful in its high position, the joy of all the earth, is the mountain of Zion, the mountain of God, the town of the great King.

For see! the kings came together by agreement, they were joined together.

In its buildings God is seen to be a high tower.

Our thoughts were of your mercy, O God, while we were in your Temple.

Make your way about Zion, and go round it, numbering its towers.

They saw it, and so were full of wonder; they were troubled, and went quickly away in fear.

Take note of its strong walls, looking well at its fair buildings; so that you may give word of it to the generation which comes after.

As it came to our ears so have we seen it, in the town of the Lord of armies, in the town of our God; God will keep it fixed for ever. (Selah.)

Because this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide.

Shaking came on them and pain, as on a woman in childbirth.
