Psalms 47:2-9

²Great is the Lord, and exceedingly to be praised in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

³With the joy of the whole earth is mount Sion founded, on the sides of the north, the city of the great king.

⁴In her houses shall God be known, when he shall protect her.

⁵For behold the kings of the earth assembled themselves: they gathered together.

⁶So they saw, and they wondered, they were troubled, they were moved:

⁷Trembling took hold of them. There were pains as of a woman in labour.

⁸With a vehement wind thou shalt break in pieces the ships of Tharsis.

⁹As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God hath founded it for ever.
