Chapter Summary
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised! The joy of the whole earth is Mount Zion. O God, we ponder your love in your temple.
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.
