Salmos 48

¹A psalm of the Korahites. A song. I Great is the LORD and highly praised in the city of our God: The holy mountain,

²fairest of heights, the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, the heights of Zaphon, the city of the great king.

³II God is its citadel, renowned as a stronghold.

⁴See! The kings assembled, together they invaded.

⁵When they looked they were astounded; terrified, they were put to flight!

⁶Trembling seized them there, anguish, like a woman's labor,

⁷As when the east wind wrecks the ships of Tarshish!

⁸III What we had heard we now see in the city of the LORD of hosts, In the city of our God, founded to last forever. Selah

⁹O God, within your temple we ponder your steadfast love.

¹⁰Like your name, O God, your praise reaches the ends of the earth. Your right hand is fully victorious.

¹¹Mount Zion is glad! The cities of Judah rejoice because of your saving deeds!

¹²IV Go about Zion, walk all around it, note the number of its towers.

¹³Consider the ramparts, examine its citadels, that you may tell future generations:

¹⁴Yes, so mighty is God, our God who leads us always!
