A song, a psalm by the Korahites.
48:1 The Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise
in the city of our God,
48:2 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.
48:3 God is in its fortresses;
he reveals himself as its defender.
