Psalms

¹A Canticle Psalm. To the sons of Korah, on the second Sabbath. ↗

²The Lord is great and exceedingly praiseworthy, in the city of our God, on his holy mountain. ↗

³Mount Zion is being founded with the exultation of the whole earth, on the north side, the city of the great king. ↗

⁴In her houses, God will be known, since he will support her. ↗

⁵For behold, the kings of the earth have been gathered together; they have convened as one. ↗

⁶Such did they see, and they were astonished: they were disturbed, they were moved. ↗

⁷Trembling took hold of them. In that place, their pains were that of a woman in labor. ↗

⁸With a vehement spirit, you will crush the ships of Tarshish. ↗

⁹As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God. God has founded it in eternity. ↗

¹⁰We have received your mercy, O God, in the midst of your temple. ↗

¹¹According to your name, O God, so does your praise reach to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of justice. ↗

¹²Let mount Zion rejoice, and let the daughters of Judah exult, because of your judgments, O Lord. ↗

¹³Encircle Zion and embrace her. Discourse in her towers. ↗

¹⁴Set your hearts on her virtue. And distribute her houses, so that you may discourse of it in another generation. ↗

¹⁵For this is God, our God, in eternity and forever and ever. He will rule us forever. ↗
