Psalm 47

Select Translation

1 A Psalm of praise for the sons of Korah on the second day of the week.
2 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised In the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
3 The city of the great King Is well planted on the mountains of Zion, With the joy of the whole earth, on the sides of the north.
4 God is known in her palaces, When he undertakes to help her.
5 For, behold, the kings of the earth were assembled, They came together.
6 They saw, and so they wondered: They were troubled, they were moved.
7 Trembling took hold on them: There were the pangs as of a woman in travail.
8 Thou wilt break the ships of Tarshish with a vehement wind.
9 As we have heard, so have we also seen, In the city of the Lord of hosts, In the city of our God: God has founded it forever. Pause.
10 We have thought of thy mercy, O God, In the midst of thy people.
11 According to thy name, O God, So is also thy praise to the ends of the earth: Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
12 Let Mount Zion rejoice, Let the daughters of Judea exult, Because of thy judgments, O Lord.
13 Go round about Zion, and encompass her: Tell ye her towers.
14 Mark ye well her strength, And observe her palaces; That ye may tell the next generation.
15 For this is our God forever and ever: He will be our guide for evermore.
