| A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. | Song of Zion. Psalm 48(v47) | שִׁיר מִזְמֹור לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח׃ | |
| 48 1 | Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised in the city of our God! His holy mountain, | גָּדֹול יְהוָה וּמְהֻלָּל מְאֹד בְּעִיר אֱלֹהֵינוּ הַר־קָדְשֹׁו׃ | |
| 2 | beautiful in elevation, is the joy of all the earth, Mount Zion, in the far north, the city of the great King. | יְפֵה נֹוף מְשֹׂושׂ כָּל־הָאָרֶץ הַר־צִיֹּון יַרְכְּתֵי צָפֹון קִרְיַת מֶלֶךְ רָב׃ | |
| 3 | Within her citadels God has shown himself a sure defense. | אֱלֹהִים בְּאַרְמְנֹותֶיהָ נֹודַע לְמִשְׂגָּב׃ | |
| 4 | For lo, the kings assembled, they came on together. | כִּי־הִנֵּה הַמְּלָכִים נֹועֲדוּ עָבְרוּ יַחְדָּו׃ | |
| 5 | As soon as they saw it, they were astounded, they were in panic, they took to flight; | הֵמָּה רָאוּ כֵּן תָּמָהוּ נִבְהֲלוּ נֶחְפָּזוּ׃ | |
| 6 | trembling took hold of them there, anguish as of a woman in travail. | רְעָדָה אֲחָזָתַם שָׁם חִיל כַּיֹּולֵדָה׃ | |
| 7 | By the east wind thou didst shatter the ships of Tarshish. | בְּרוּחַ קָדִים תְּשַׁבֵּר אֳנִיֹּות תַּרְשִׁישׁ׃ | |
| 8 | As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God, which God establishes for ever. Selah | כַּאֲשֶׁר שָׁמַעְנוּ כֵּן רָאִינוּ בְּעִיר־יְהוָה צְבָאֹות בְּעִיר אֱלֹהֵינוּ אֱלֹהִים יְכֹונְנֶהָ עַד־עֹולָם סֶלָה׃ | |
| 9 | We have thought on thy steadfast love, O God, in the midst of thy temple. | דִּמִּינוּ אֱלֹהִים חַסְדֶּךָ בְּקֶרֶב הֵיכָלֶךָ׃ | |
| 10 | As thy name, O God, so thy praise reaches to the ends of the earth. Thy right hand is filled with victory; | כְּשִׁמְךָ אֱלֹהִים כֵּן תְּהִלָּתְךָ עַל־קַצְוֵי־אֶרֶץ צֶדֶק מָלְאָה יְמִינֶךָ׃ | |
| 11 | let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of thy judgments! | יִשְׂמַח הַר־צִיֹּון תָּגֵלְנָה בְּנֹות יְהוּדָה לְמַעַן מִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ׃ | |
| 12 | Walk about Zion, go round about her, number her towers, | סֹבּוּ צִיֹּון וְהַקִּיפוּהָ סִפְרוּ מִגְדָּלֶיהָ׃ | |
| 13 | consider well her ramparts, go through her citadels; that you may tell the next generation | שִׁיתוּ לִבְּכֶם לְחֵילָה פַּסְּגוּ אַרְמְנֹותֶיהָ לְמַעַן תְּסַפְּרוּ לְדֹור אַחֲרֹון׃ | |
| 14 | that this is God, our God for ever and ever. He will be our guide for ever. | כִּי זֶה אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֵינוּ עֹולָם וָעֶד הוּא יְנַהֲגֵנוּ עַל־מוּת׃ | |
