8 The things we had only heard about, we have now seenin the city of the Lord of Armies,in the city of our God.God makes Zion stand firm forever. Selah
9 Inside your temple we carefully reflect on your mercy, O God.
10 Like your name, O God,your praise ⌊reaches⌋ to the ends of the earth.Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
11 Let Mount Zion be gladand the cities of Judah rejoicebecause of your judgments.
12 Walk around Zion.Go around it.Count its towers.
13 Examine its embankments.Walk through its palaces.Then you can tell the next generation,
14 “This God is our God forever and ever.He will lead us beyond death.”
