A Song and Psalmfor the sonsof Korah. Great is the LORD, and greatlyto be praisedin the cityof our God, in the mountainof his holiness. Beautifulfor situation, the joyof the wholeearth, is mountZion, on the sidesof the north, the cityof the greatKing. Godis knownin her palacesfor a refuge. For, lo, the kingswere assembled, they passed bytogether. Theysaw it, and sothey marveled; they were troubled, and hasted away. Feartook hold uponthem there, and pain, as of a woman in travail. Thou breakestthe shipsof Tarshishwith an eastwind. Aswe have heard, sohave we seenin the cityof the LORDof hosts, in the cityof our God: Godwill establishit forever. Selah. We have thoughtof thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midstof thy temple. According to thy name, O God, so is thy praiseuntothe endsof the earth: thy right handis fullof righteousness. Let mountZionrejoice, let the daughtersof Judahbe glad, because ofthy judgments. Walk aboutZion, and go round abouther: tellthe towersthereof. Mark ye wellher bulwarks, considerher palaces; thatye may tell it to the generationfollowing. ForthisGod is our Godforeverand ever: hewill be our guide even untodeath.
