Psalmi 48
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
48 In finem, filiis Core. Psalmus.
2 Audite haec, omnes gentes; auribus percipite, omnes qui habitatis orbem:
3 quique terrigenae et filii hominum, simul in unum dives et pauper.
4 Os meum loquetur sapientiam, et meditatio cordis mei prudentiam.
5 Inclinabo in parabolam aurem meam; aperiam in psalterio propositionem meam.
6 Cur timebo in die mala? iniquitas calcanei mei circumdabit me.
7 Qui confidunt in virtute sua, et in multitudine divitiarum suarum, gloriantur.
8 Frater non redimit, redimet homo: non dabit Deo placationem suam,
9 et pretium redemptionis animae suae. Et laborabit in aeternum;
10 et vivet adhuc in finem.
11 Non videbit interitum, cum viderit sapientes morientes: simul insipiens et stultus peribunt. Et relinquent alienis divitias suas,
12 et sepulchra eorum domus illorum in aeternum; tabernacula eorum in progenie et progenie: vocaverunt nomina sua in terris suis.
13 Et homo, cum in honore esset, non intellexit. Comparatus est jumentis insipientibus, et similis factus est illis.
14 Haec via illorum scandalum ipsis; et postea in ore suo complacebunt.
15 Sicut oves in inferno positi sunt: mors depascet eos. Et dominabuntur eorum justi in matutino; et auxilium eorum veterascet in inferno a gloria eorum.
16 Verumtamen Deus redimet animam meam de manu inferi, cum acceperit me.
17 Ne timueris cum dives factus fuerit homo, et cum multiplicata fuerit gloria domus ejus:
18 quoniam, cum interierit, non sumet omnia, neque descendet cum eo gloria ejus.
19 Quia anima ejus in vita ipsius benedicetur; confitebitur tibi cum benefeceris ei.
20 Introibit usque in progenies patrum suorum; et usque in aeternum non videbit lumen.
21 Homo, cum in honore esset, non intellexit. Comparatus est jumentis insipientibus, et similis factus est illis.

New International Version
Psalm 48[a]
A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah.
1 Great is the Lord,(A) and most worthy of praise,(B)
in the city of our God,(C) his holy mountain.(D)
2 Beautiful(E) in its loftiness,
the joy of the whole earth,
like the heights of Zaphon[b](F) is Mount Zion,(G)
the city of the Great King.(H)
3 God is in her citadels;(I)
he has shown himself to be her fortress.(J)
4 When the kings joined forces,
when they advanced together,(K)
5 they saw her and were astounded;
they fled in terror.(L)
6 Trembling seized(M) them there,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(N)
7 You destroyed them like ships of Tarshish(O)
shattered by an east wind.(P)
8 As we have heard,
so we have seen
in the city of the Lord Almighty,
in the city of our God:
God makes her secure
forever.[c](Q)
9 Within your temple, O God,
we meditate(R) on your unfailing love.(S)
10 Like your name,(T) O God,
your praise reaches to the ends of the earth;(U)
your right hand is filled with righteousness.
11 Mount Zion rejoices,
the villages of Judah are glad
because of your judgments.(V)
12 Walk about Zion, go around her,
count her towers,(W)
13 consider well her ramparts,(X)
view her citadels,(Y)
that you may tell of them
to the next generation.(Z)
14 For this God is our God for ever and ever;
he will be our guide(AA) even to the end.
