Psalms 48:11

Mount Zion

9 Within Your temple, O God, we contemplate Your loving devotion.

10 Your name, O God, like Your praise, reaches to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness.

Mount Zion is glad, the daughters of Judah rejoice, on account of Your judgments.

12 March around Zion, encircle her, count her towers,

13 consider her ramparts, tour her citadels, that you may tell the next generation.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
