2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
         
                                
                        3 God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
         
                                
                        4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
         
                                
                        5 They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
         
                                
                        6 Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
         
                                
                        7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
         
                                
                        8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
