48Psalms · Contemporary English Version (2006)
1The Lord God is wonderful! He deserves all praise in the city where he lives. His holy mountain,
2beautiful and majestic, brings joy to all on earth. Mount Zion, truly sacred, is home for the Great King.
3God is there to defend it and has proved to be its protector.
4Kings joined forces to attack the city,
5but when they saw it, they were terrified and ran away.
6They trembled all over like women giving birth
7or like seagoing ships wrecked by eastern winds.
8We had heard about it, and now we have seen it in the city of our God, the Lord All-Powerful. This is the city that God will let stand forever.
9Our God, here in your temple we think about your love.
10You are famous and praised everywhere on earth, as you win victories with your powerful arm.
11Mount Zion will celebrate, and all Judah will be glad, because you bring justice.
12Let's walk around Zion and count its towers.
13We will see its strong walls and visit each fortress. Then you can say to future generations,
14“Our God is like this forever and will always guide us.”
