Psalm 48:6-8
New Living Translation

6 They were gripped with terror
    and writhed in pain like a woman in labor.
7 You destroyed them like the mighty ships of Tarshish
    shattered by a powerful east wind.

8 We had heard of the city’s glory,
    but now we have seen it ourselves—
    the city of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
It is the city of our God;
    he will make it safe forever. Interlude

    so we have seen
in the city of the Lord Almighty,
    in the city of our God:
God makes her secure
    forever.[a](E)
