Young's Literal1 A 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. 2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, [is] mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King. 3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge. 4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together. 5 They saw [it, and] so they marvelled; they were troubled, [and] hasted away. 6 Fear took hold upon them there, [and] pain, as of a woman in travail. 7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. 8 As 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. 9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple. 10 According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness. 11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. 12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. 13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell [it] to the generation following. 14 For this God [is] our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide [even] unto death. King James Version1 A Song, a Psalm, by sons of Korah. Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, In the city of our God -- His holy hill. 2 Beautiful [for] elevation, A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king. 3 God in her high places is known for a tower. 4 For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together, 5 They have seen -- so they have marvelled, They have been troubled, they were hastened away. 6 Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman. 7 By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish. 8 As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her -- to the age. Selah. 9 We have thought, O God, of Thy kindness, In the midst of Thy temple, 10 As [is] Thy name, O God, so [is] Thy praise, Over the ends of the earth, Righteousness hath filled Thy right hand. 11 Rejoice doth Mount Zion, The daughters of Judah are joyful, For the sake of Thy judgments. 12 Compass Zion, and go round her, count her towers, 13 Set your heart to her bulwark, Consider her high places, So that ye recount to a later generation, 14 That this God [is] our God -- To the age and for ever, He -- he doth lead us over death! |
