1 Canción: Salmo de los hijos de Coré. GRANDE es Jehová y digno de ser en gran manera alabado, En la ciudad de nuestro Dios, en el monte de su santuario.

2 Hermosa provincia, el gozo de toda la tierra Es el monte de Sión, á los lados del aquilón, La ciudad del gran Rey.

3 Dios en sus palacios es conocido por refugio.

4 Porque he aquí los reyes de la tierra se reunieron; Pasaron todos.

5 Y viéndola ellos así, maravilláronse, Se turbaron, diéronse priesa á huir.

6 Tomólos allí temblor; Dolor, como á mujer que pare.

7 Con viento solano Quiebras tú las naves de Tharsis.

8 Como lo oímos, así hemos visto En la ciudad de Jehová de los ejércitos, en la ciudad de nuestro Dios: Afirmarála Dios para siempre. (Selah.)

9 Esperamos tu misericordia, oh Dios, En medio de tu templo.

10 Conforme á tu nombre, oh Dios, Así es tu loor hasta los fines de la tierra: De justicia está llena tu diestra.

11 Alegraráse el monte de Sión; Se gozarán las hijas de Judá Por tus juicios.

12 Andad alrededor de Sión, y rodeadla: Contad sus torres.

13 Poned vuestro corazón á su antemuro, Mirad sus palacios; Para que lo contéis á la generación venidera.

14 Porque este Dios es Dios nuestro eternalmente y para siempre: El nos capitaneará hasta la muerte.

1 A Song. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.

2 \48:1\Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised, in the town of our God, in his holy mountain.

3 \48:2\Beautiful in its high position, the joy of all the earth, is the mountain of Zion, the mountain of God, the town of the great King.

4 \48:3\In its buildings God is seen to be a high tower.

5 \48:4\For see! the kings came together by agreement, they were joined together.

6 \48:5\They saw it, and so were full of wonder; they were troubled, and went quickly away in fear.

7 \48:6\Shaking came on them and pain, as on a woman in childbirth.

8 \48:7\By you the ships of Tarshish are broken as by an east wind.

9 \48:8\As it came to our ears so have we seen it, in the town of the Lord of armies, in the town of our God; God will keep it fixed for ever. (Selah.)

10 \48:9\Our thoughts were of your mercy, O God, while we were in your Temple.

11 \48:10\As your name is, O God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth; your right hand is full of righteousness.

12 \48:11\Let there be joy in the mountain of Zion, and let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of your wise decisions.

13 \48:12\Make your way about Zion, and go round it, numbering its towers.

14 \48:13\Take note of its strong walls, looking well at its fair buildings; so that you may give word of it to the generation which comes after.

15 \48:14\Because this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide.
