诗篇 第 48 篇

¹（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。Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.

²锡安山─大君王的城，在北面居高华美，为全地所喜悦。Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

³神在其宫中，自显为避难所。God is known in her palaces for a refuge.

⁴看哪，众王会合，一同经过。For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

⁵他们见了这城就惊奇丧胆，急忙逃跑。They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.

⁶他们在那里被战兢疼痛抓住，好像产难的妇人一样。Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

⁷神啊，你用东风打破他施的船只。Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

⁸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）As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.

⁹神啊，我们在你的殿中想念你的慈爱。We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.

¹⁰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。According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

¹¹因你的判断，锡安山应当欢喜，犹大的城邑（原文是女子）应当快乐。Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.

¹²你们当周游锡安，四围旋绕，数点城楼，Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.

¹³细看他的外郭，察看他的宫殿，为要传说到后代。Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

¹⁴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。For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.
