Psalm 48 — Psalms 48:8–14

As we have heard, so have we seen
In the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God:
God will establish it for ever.
[Selah

We have thought on thy lovingkindness, O God,
In the midst of thy temple.

As is thy name, O God,
So is thy praise unto the ends of the earth:
Thy right hand is full of righteousness.

Let mount Zion be glad,
Let the daughters of Judah rejoice,
Because of thy judgments.

Walk about Zion, and go round about her;
Number the towers thereof;

Mark ye well her bulwarks;
Consider her palaces:
That ye may tell it to the generation following.

For this God is our God for ever and ever:
He will be our guide even unto death.
