स्तोत्रसंहिता 48
1 १ कोरहाच्या पुत्राचे स्तोत्रगीत. आमच्या देवाच्या नगरात, त्याच्या पवित्र पर्वतावर, परमेश्वर थोर आणि परमस्तुत्य आहे.
A Song; a Psalm. Of the sons of Korah. Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the hill of his holiness.
2 २ सियोन डोंगर, जो थोर राजाची नगरी आहे, पृथ्वीच्या बाजूस आहे, त्याचे सौंदर्य उच्चतेवर, सर्व पृथ्वीवर आनंद आणते.
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
God is known in her palaces as a high fortress.
For behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together;
They saw, — so they marvelled; they were troubled, they fled in consternation:
6 ६ भयाने त्यांना गाठले, भीतीने त्यांचा थरकाप झाला. प्रसवणाऱ्या स्रीच्या वेदनांप्रमाणे त्यांना वेदना लागल्या.
Trembling took hold upon them there; anguish, as of a woman in travail.
With an east wind thou hast broken the ships of Tarshish.
8 ८ होय, आम्ही ती गोष्ट ऐकली पण आम्ही ते सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वराच्या नगरात, आमच्या देवाच्या नगरात घडत असलेले पाहिले. देव ते शहर सदैव सामर्थ्यवान बनवतो.
As we have heard, so have we seen, in the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God: God doth establish it for ever. (Selah)
We have thought, O God, of thy loving-kindness, in the midst of thy temple.
According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.
Walk about Zion, and go round about her: count the towers thereof;
13 १३ उंच भिंती बघा, सियोनेच्या राजवाड्याचे वर्णन करा. नंतर तुम्ही पुढच्या पिढीला त्याबद्दल सांगू शकाल.
Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces: that ye may tell it to the generation following.
For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide until death.
