Psalms 48:6-11

⁶They shook all over, and were in agonizing pain like a woman giving birth,

⁷just as the strong east wind wrecks the ships from Tarshish.

⁸Just as we had heard, but now we have seen the city of the Lord Almighty. This is the city of our God; he makes it secure forever. Selah.

⁹God, we recall your trustworthy love as we worship in the Temple.

¹⁰As is fitting for your reputation, God, praises to you stretch all around the world. What you do is always right!

¹¹Let the people of Mount Zion be glad; let the people of Judah celebrate because your judgments are always fair!
