It is lofty and pleasing to look at, a source of joy to the whole earth. Mount Zion resembles the peaks of Zaphon; it is the city of the great king.God is in its fortresses; he reveals himself as its defender.For look, the kings assemble; they advance together.As soon as they see, they are shocked; they are terrified, they quickly retreat.Look at them shake uncontrollably, like a woman writhing in childbirth.With an east wind you shatter the large ships.We heard about God’s mighty deeds, now we have seen them, in the city of the LORD, the invincible Warrior, in the city of our God. God makes it permanently secure.( Selah)
