Broken shackles

1
A SONG. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, || In the city of our God—His holy hill.
2
Beautiful [for] elevation, || A joy of all the land, [is] Mount Zion, || The sides of the north, the city of [the] great King.
3
God is known for a tower in her high places.
4
For behold, the kings met, they passed by together,
5
They have seen—so they have marveled, || They have been troubled, they were hurried away.
6
Trembling has seized them there, || Pain, as of a travailing woman.
7
By an east wind You shatter ships of Tarshish.
8
As we have heard, so we have seen, || In the city of YHWH of hosts, || In the city of our God, God establishes her for all time. Selah.
9
We have thought, O God, of Your kindness, || In the midst of Your temple,
10
As [is] Your Name, O God, so [is] Your praise, || Over the ends of the earth, || Righteousness has filled Your right hand.
11
Mount Zion rejoices, || The daughters of Judah are joyful, || For the sake of Your judgments.
12
Surround Zion, and go around her, count her towers,
13
Set your heart to her bulwark, || Consider her high places, || So that you recount to a later generation,
14
That this God [is] our God—For all time and forever, || He leads us over death!

Broken shackles

1
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
2
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.
3
God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.
4
For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.
5
They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.
6
Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.
7
With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
8
As we have heard, so we have seen, in the city of the LORD of Armies, in the city of our God. God will establish it forever. Selah.
9
We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the middle of your temple.
10
As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
11
Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments.
12
Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers.
13
Notice her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation.
14
For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.
