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,

コラの子のうたなり讃美なり ヱホバは大なり われらの神の都そのきよき山のうへにて甚くほめたたへられたまふべし

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.

シオンの山はきたの端たかくしてうるはしく喜悦を地にあまねくあたふ ここは大なる王のみやこなり

3 God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.

そのもろもろの殿のうちに神はおのれをたかき櫓としてあらはしたまへり

4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.

みよ王等はつどひあつまりて偕にすぎゆきぬ

5 They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.

かれらは都をみてあやしみ且おそれて忽ちのがれされり

6 Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.

戦慄はかれらにのぞみ その苦痛は子をうまんとする婦のごとし

7 With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

なんぢは東風をおこしてタルシシの舟をやぶりたまふ

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)

曩にわれらが聞しごとく今われらは萬車のヱホバの都われらの神のみやこにて之をみることをえたり 神はこの都をとこしへまで固くしたまはん (セラ)

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

神よ我らはなんぢの宮のうちにて仁慈をおもへり

10 As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.

神よなんぢの譽はその名のごとく地の極にまでおよべり なんぢの右手はただしきにて充り

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

なんぢのもろもろの審判によりてシオンの山はよろこびユダの女輩はたのしむべし

12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.

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

シオンの周圍をありき徧くめぐりてその櫓をかぞへよ その石垣に目をとめよ そのもろもろの殿をみよ なんぢらこれを後代にかたりつたへんが爲なり

14 For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.

そはこの神はいや遠長にわれらの神にましましてわれらを死るまでみちびきたまはん
