< Psalms 48 >
1 A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain,
可拉后裔的诗歌。 耶和华本为大! 在我们 神的城中, 在他的圣山上,该受大赞美。
2 Fair in situation, the joy of the whole earth; even mount Zion, the uttermost parts of the north, the city of the great King.
锡安山—大君王的城, 在北面居高华美, 为全地所喜悦。
3 God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.
神在其宫中, 自显为避难所。
4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.
看哪,众王会合, 一同经过。
5 They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.
他们见了这城就惊奇丧胆, 急忙逃跑。
6 Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.
他们在那里被战兢疼痛抓住, 好像产难的妇人一样。
7 With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.
神啊,你用东风打破他施的船只。
8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God — God establish it for ever. (Selah)
我们在万军之耶和华的城中 —就是我们 神的城中—所看见的, 正如我们所听见的。 神必坚立这城,直到永远。 (细拉)
9 We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Thy temple.
神啊,我们在你的殿中想念你的慈爱。
10 As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
神啊,你受的赞美正与你的名相称,直到地极! 你的右手满了公义。
11 Let mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Thy judgments.
因你的判断,锡安山应当欢喜, 犹大的城邑应当快乐。
12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.
你们当周游锡安, 四围旋绕,数点城楼,
13 Mark ye well her ramparts, traverse her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
细看她的外郭, 察看她的宫殿, 为要传说到后代。
14 For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.
因为这 神永永远远为我们的 神; 他必作我们引路的,直到死时。
