1 - 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 north sides,the city of the great King.

3 - God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.

4 - For, behold, the kings assembled themselves,they passed by together.

5 - They saw it, then they were amazed.They were dismayed.They hurried away.

6 - Trembling took hold of them there,pain, as of a woman in travail.

7 - With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.

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 about your loving kindness, God,in the middle of your temple.

10 - As is your name, God,so is your praise to the ends of the earth.Your right hand is full of righteousness.

11 - Let Mount Zion be glad!Let the daughters of Judah rejoice,Because of your judgments.

12 - Walk about Zion, and go around her.Number its towers.

13 - Mark well her bulwarks.Consider her palaces,that you may tell it to the next generation.

14 - For this God is our God forever and ever.He will be our guide even to death.
