Psalms 48:1-9
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 48

1Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised In the city of our God, His holy mountain. 2Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion in the far north, The city of the great King. 3In its palaces, God has made Himself known as a stronghold. 4For, behold, the kings arrived, They passed by together. 5They saw it, then they were amazed; They were terrified, they fled in a hurry. 6 Panic seized them there, Anguish, as that of a woman in childbirth. 7With the east wind You smash the ships of Tarshish. 8Just as we have heard, so have we seen In the city of the Lord of armies, in the city of our God; God will establish her forever. Selah 9We have thought over Your goodness, God, In the midst of Your temple.
King James Version

Chapter 48

1A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
2Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
3God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
4For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
5They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
6Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
7Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
8As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
9We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 48

1A song. A psalm of the sons of Korah. The Lord is great and highly praised in the city of our God. His holy mountain, 2rising splendidly, is the joy of the whole earth. Mount Zion—the summit of Zaphon— is the city of the great King.
3God is known as a stronghold in its citadels. 4Look! The kings assembled; they advanced together. 5They looked and froze with fear; they fled in terror. 6Trembling seized them there, agony like that of a woman in labor,
7as you wrecked the ships of Tarshish with the east wind.
8Just as we heard, so we have seen in the city of the Lord of Armies, in the city of our God; God will establish it forever. Selah 9God, within your temple, we contemplate your faithful love.
New Living Translation

Chapter 48

1How great is the Lord, how deserving of praise, in the city of our God, which sits on his holy mountain! 2It is high and magnificent; the whole earth rejoices to see it! Mount Zion, the holy mountain, is the city of the great King! 3God himself is in Jerusalem’s towers, revealing himself as its defender.
4The kings of the earth joined forces and advanced against the city. 5But when they saw it, they were stunned; they were terrified and ran away. 6They were gripped with terror and writhed in pain like a woman in labor. 7You destroyed them like the mighty ships of Tarshish shattered by a powerful east wind.
8We had heard of the city’s glory, but now we have seen it ourselves — the city of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. It is the city of our God; he will make it safe forever. Interlude
9O God, we meditate on your unfailing love as we worship in your Temple.
English Standard Version

Chapter 48

1 Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised in the city of our God! His holy mountain, 2 beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King. 3Within her citadels God has made himself known as a fortress. 4For behold, the kings assembled; they came on together. 5As soon as they saw it, they were astounded; they were in panic; they took to flight. 6 Trembling took hold of them there, anguish as of a woman in labor. 7By the east wind you shattered the ships of Tarshish. 8As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God, which God will establish forever. Selah 9We have thought on your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of your temple.
New International Version

Chapter 48

1A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. Great is the Lord, and most worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his holy mountain. 2Beautiful in its loftiness, the joy of the whole earth, like the heights of Zaphon is Mount Zion, the city of the Great King.
3God is in her citadels; he has shown himself to be her fortress. 4When the kings joined forces, when they advanced together, 5they saw her and were astounded; they fled in terror. 6Trembling seized them there, pain like that of a woman in labor.
7You destroyed them like ships of Tarshish shattered by an east wind.
8As we have heard, so we have seen in the city of the Lord Almighty, in the city of our God: God makes her secure forever. 9Within your temple, O God, we meditate on your unfailing love.
New King James Version

1{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. 3God is in her palaces; He is known as her refuge. 4For behold, the kings assembled, They passed by together. 5They saw it, and so they marveled; They were troubled, they hastened away. 6Fear 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.
8As 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
9We have thought, O God, on Your lovingkindness, In the midst of Your temple.
