Psalm 48:1-5 American Standard Version (ASV)

1. Great is Jehovah, 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 sides of the north, The city of the great King.

3. God hath made himself known in her palaces for a refuge.

4. For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.

5. They saw it, then were they amazed; They were dismayed, they hasted away.
