1« 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. 2Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, [is] mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King. 3God is known in her palaces for a refuge. 4For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together. 5They saw [ it, and] so they marvelled; they were troubled, [and] hasted away. 6Feare came there vpon them, and sorowe, as vpon a woman in trauaile. 7Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. 8As 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. 9We waite for thy louing kindnes, O God, in the middes of thy Temple. 10According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness. 11Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. 12Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. 13Marke well the wall thereof: beholde her towres, that ye may tell your posteritie. 14For this God is our God for euer and euer: he shall be our guide vnto the death.
