Psalm 48
Kies 'n beryming om te vergelyk
Vers 1
is to be praised still,
Within the city of our God,
upon his holy hill.
Vers 2
the joy of all the land;
The city of the mighty King
on her north side doth stand.
Vers 3
is for a refuge known.
For, lo, the kings that gather’d were
together, by have gone.
Vers 4
they, wond’ring, would not stay;
But, being troubled at the sight,
they thence did haste away.
Vers 5
they were possess’d with fear;
Their grief came like a woman’s pain,
when she a child doth bear.
Vers 6
As we have heard it told,
So, in the city of the Lord,
our eyes did it behold;
Vers 7
for ever stablish will.
We of thy loving-kindness thought,
Lord, in thy temple still.
Vers 8
through all the earth’s thy praise;
And thy right hand, O Lord, is full
of righteousness always.
Vers 9
let Sion mount rejoice;
Of Judah let the daughters all
send forth a cheerful voice.
Vers 10
and go round; the high tow’rs thereof tell:
Consider ye her palaces,
and mark her bulwarks well;
Vers 11
For this God doth abide
Our God for evermore; he will
ev’n unto death us guide.
