Psalm 48:6-8

Contemporary English Version

⁶ They trembled all over
    like women giving birth
⁷ or like seagoing ships^[a]
    wrecked by eastern winds.
⁸ We had heard about it,
and now we have seen it
    in the city of our God,
    the Lord All-Powerful.
This is the city that God
    will let stand forever.
