Only Version ❧ CM/CMD · 8·6·8·6 (D)
A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah.
1 Great is Jehovah, and he is to be praised greatly within the city of our God, in his mountain holy. 2 For situation beautiful, the joy of the whole earth mount Zion; the great King’s city on the sides of the north.
3 God in her palaces is known to be a refuge high. 4 For lo, the kings assembl’d were: they past together by. 5 They saw, and so they marveled, were troubl’d, fled for fear. 6 Trembling seiz’d on them there and pain like her that child doth bear.
7 The navies that of Tarshish are in pieces thou breakest: ev’n with a very blast of wind coming out of the east. 8 As we heard, so we saw within the Lord of hosts’ city, in our God’s city, God will it stablish eternally. Selah.
9 O God, we have had thoughts upon thy free benignity, within the very middle part of thy temple holy. 10 According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of earth: thy right hand’s full of righteousness also.
11 Let the mountain Zion rejoice, and triumph let them make who are the daughters of Judah, ev’n for thy judgments’ sake. 12 About the hill of Zion walk, and go about her ye, and do ye reckon up thereof the tow’rs that therein be.
13 Do ye full well her bulwarks mark, her palaces view well, that to the generation to come ye may it tell. 14 For this same God he is our God for ever and for aye: likewise unto the very death he guides us in our way.
