A Song & Psalm for the sons of Korah. |
Psalm 48:1-14 Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
In the city of our God, Great is the Lord & greatly to be praised, in the mountain of His holiness. |
[Psalm 66:4-6 All the earth shall worship You & shall sing to You. They shall sing to Your Name. Selah. Come & see the [miracles] of God. He is [terribly awesome] in [what] He does toward the children of men. He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the flood on foot & there, we did rejoice in Him.] |
Mount Zion, the city of the great King, [is] [beautifully situated,] on the sides of the north, the joy of the whole earth. [Psalm 50:2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shined.] |
God is known in [Mount Zion's] palaces, [as] a refuge. For, [look,] the kings were assembled together & passed by [it] together. So, they marveled, [when] they saw it. They were troubled & [hurried] away. Fear took hold [of] them there, [like] the pain of a woman in [childbirth.] |
[Exodus 15:13-18 You in Your mercy has led the people [out, whom] You have redeemed. You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy [residence.] The people shall hear & be afraid. Sorrow shall take hold of [Philistia's] inhabitants. |
Then, the dukes of Edom shall be amazed. Trembling shall take hold of the mighty men of Moab. All [Canaan's] inhabitants shall melt away. Fear & [anxiety] shall fall upon them. |
By the greatness of Your arm, they shall be as still as a [rock, until] the people pass over. O Lord, [until] the people pass over, [whom] You have purchased. You shall bring them in, O Lord, in the Sanctuary, which Your hands have established. The Lord shall [rule] forever & ever.] |
You break the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. [Just] as we have heard, we have [also] seen in the city of the Lord of Hosts, in the city of our God. God will establish [the city] forever. Selah. |
In the midst of Your temple, we have thought of Your loving kindness. Your right hand is full of righteousness. O God, according to Your Name, so is Your praise unto the ends of the earth. |
[Malachi 1:11 From [sunrise] even to [sunset,] My Name shall be great among the Gentiles & in every place that incense shall be offered to My Name. A pure offering to My Name, shall be great among the heathen, says the Lord of Hosts.] |
Let Mount Zion rejoice & let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of Your judgments. Walk [around] Zion & go [around] her & [count its] towers. [Remember] you well, her [castle walls.] Consider her palaces, [so] you may tell it to the following generation. |
For this God, is our God forever & ever. He will be our guide, even to death. [Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil. For You are with me. Your rod & Your staff, they comfort me.] |
