Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.

Psalms 48
EnglishBeautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, is Mount Zion, on the north sides, the city of the great King.
God has shown himself in her citadels as a refuge.
For, behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together.
They saw it, then they were amazed. They were dismayed. They hurried away.
Trembling took hold of them there, pain, as of a woman in travail.
With the east wind, you break the ships of Tarshish.
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.
We have thought about your loving kindness, God, in the middle of your temple.
As is your name, God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth. Your right hand is full of righteousness.
Let Mount Zion be glad! Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments.
Walk about Zion, and go around her. Number its towers.
Notice her bulwarks. Consider her palaces, that you may tell it to the next generation.
For this God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide even to death.
سِفْرُ المزامير 48
العربيةنَشيد. مزمور. لِبَني قورَح
الرَّبُّ عَظيمٌ وجَديرٌ بِالتَّسبيحِ الكَثير في مَدينَةِ إِلٰهِنا، جَبَلِ قُدسِه
البَهِيِّ الطَّلعَة بَهجةِ الأَرضِ كُلِّها. جَبَلُ صِهْيونَ، أَقاصي الشَّمال مَدينةُ المَلِكِ العظيم
أَللهُ في قُصورِها أَظهَرَ نَفسَه حِصْنًا
هُوَذا المُلوكُ قد تَحالَفوا ومُجتَمِعين زَحَفوا
رأَوا فبُهِتوا ذُعِروا فهَرَبوا
أَخَذتهم هُناكَ الرِّعدَة كما يأخُذُ المَخاضُ الوالِدَة
كأَنَّها ريحٌ شَرقِيَّة تُحَطِّمُ سُفُنَ تَرْشيش
كَما سَمِعْنا، كذٰلِكَ رأَينا في مَدينةِ رَبِّ القُوَّات في مدينةِ إِلٰهِنا. إِنَّ اللهَ يُوَطِّدُها لِلأَبَد. سِلاه
أَللَّهُمَّ تَأَمَّلنا في رَحمَتِكَ في وَسَطِ هَيكَلِكَ
تَسبِحَتُكَ يا أَللهُ مِثلُ ٱسمِكَ تَبلُغُ أَقاصِيَ أَرضِكَ. يَمينُكَ مَمْلوءَةٌ بِرًّا
جَبَلُ صِهْيونَ يَفْرَح وبَناتُ يَهوذا تَبتَهِج مِن أَجلِ أَحْكامِكَ
طوفوا بِصِهْيونَ ودوروا حَولَها وٱحْصوا بُروجَها
عَلِّقوا قُلوبَكم بِأَسْوارِها وتأَمَّلوا في قُصورِها. لِتُخبِروا الأَجْيالَ القادِمة
بِأَنَّ اللهَ هو إِلٰهُنا مَدى الدَّهْرِ ولِلأَبَد وهو يُرشِدُنا أَبَدَ الدُّهور
