1 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.

1 שִׁ֥יר מִ֝זְמֹור לִבְנֵי־קֹֽרַח׃

2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

2 גָּ֘דֹ֤ול יְהוָ֣ה וּמְהֻלָּ֣ל מְאֹ֑ד בְּעִ֥יר אֱ֝לֹהֵ֗ינוּ הַר־קָדְשֹֽׁו׃

3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

3 יְפֵ֥ה נֹוף֮ מְשֹׂ֪ושׂ כָּל־הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ הַר־צִ֭יֹּון יַרְכְּתֵ֣י צָפֹ֑ון קִ֝רְיַ֗ת מֶ֣לֶךְ רָֽב׃

4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

4 אֱלֹהִ֥ים בְּאַרְמְנֹותֶ֗יהָ נֹודַ֥ע לְמִשְׂגָּֽב׃

5 They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.

5 כִּֽי־הִנֵּ֣ה הַ֭מְּלָכִים נֹֽועֲד֑וּ עָבְר֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃

6 Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

6 הֵ֣מָּה רָ֭אוּ כֵּ֣ן תָּמָ֑הוּ נִבְהֲל֥וּ נֶחְפָּֽזוּ׃

7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

7 רְ֭עָדָה אֲחָזָ֣תַם שָׁ֑ם חִ֝֗יל כַּיֹּולֵֽדָה׃

8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

8 בְּר֥וּחַ קָדִ֑ים תְּ֝שַׁבֵּ֗ר אֳנִיֹּ֥ות תַּרְשִֽׁישׁ׃

9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.

9 כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר שָׁמַ֨עְנוּ׀ כֵּ֤ן רָאִ֗ינוּ בְּעִיר־יְהוָ֣ה צְ֭בָאֹות בְּעִ֣יר אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ אֱלֹ֘הִ֤ים יְכֹונְנֶ֖הָ עַד־עֹולָ֣ם סֶֽלָה׃

10 According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

10 דִּמִּ֣ינוּ אֱלֹהִ֣ים חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ בְּ֝קֶ֗רֶב הֵיכָלֶֽךָ׃

11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.

11 כְּשִׁמְךָ֤ אֱלֹהִ֗ים כֵּ֣ן תְּ֭הִלָּתְךָ עַל־קַצְוֵי־אֶ֑רֶץ צֶ֝֗דֶק מָלְאָ֥ה יְמִינֶֽךָ׃

12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.

12 יִשְׂמַ֤ח׀ הַר־צִיֹּ֗ון תָּ֭גֵלְנָה בְּנֹ֣ות יְהוּדָ֑ה לְ֝מַ֗עַן מִשְׁפָּטֶֽיךָ׃

13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

13 סֹ֣בּוּ צִ֭יֹּון וְהַקִּיפ֑וּהָ סִ֝פְר֗וּ מִגְדָּלֶֽיהָ׃

14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

14 שִׁ֤יתוּ לִבְּכֶ֨ם׀ לְֽחֵילָ֗ה פַּסְּג֥וּ אַרְמְנֹותֶ֑יהָ לְמַ֥עַן תְּ֝סַפְּר֗וּ לְדֹ֣ור אַחֲרֹֽון׃
