Psalm 48:1-3

New Living Translation

¹ How great is the Lord,
    how deserving of praise,
in the city of our God,
    which sits on his holy mountain!
² It is high and magnificent;
    the whole earth rejoices to see it!
Mount Zion, the holy mountain,^[a]
    is the city of the great King!
³ God himself is in Jerusalem’s towers,
    revealing himself as its defender.
