| | 1 | A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised In the city of our God, In His holy mountain. | |
| | 2 | Beautiful in elevation, The joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion on the sides of the north, The city of the great King. | |
| | 3 | God is in her palaces; He is known as her refuge. | |
| | 4 | For behold, the kings assembled, They passed by together. | |
| | 5 | They saw it, and so they marveled; They were troubled, they hastened away. | |
| | 6 | Fear took hold of them there, And pain, as of a woman in birth pangs, | |
| | 7 | As when You break the ships of Tarshish With an east wind. | |
| | 8 | As we have heard, So we have seen In the city of the LORD of hosts, In the city of our God: God will establish it forever. Selah | |
| | 9 | We have thought, O God, on Your lovingkindness, In the midst of Your temple. | |
| | 10 | According to Your name, O God, So is Your praise to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness. | |
| | 11 | Let Mount Zion rejoice, Let the daughters of Judah be glad, Because of Your judgments. | |
| | 12 | Walk about Zion, And go all around her. Count her towers; | |
| | 13 | Mark well her bulwarks; Consider her palaces; That you may tell it to the generation following. | |
| | 14 | For this is God, Our God forever and ever; He will be our guide Even to death. | |
