Psalm 46
For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.
1 God is
our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore
we won’t be afraid, though the earth
changes,
though the mountains are shaken
into the heart of
the seas;
3 though
its waters roar and
are troubled,
though the mountains tremble
with their swelling.
Selah.
4 There
is a river,
the streams of
which make the city
of God glad,
the holy place of
the tents of
the Most High.
5 God is within
her. She shall not
be moved.
God will help her at dawn.
6 The nations
raged. The kingdoms were
moved.
He lifted his voice
and the earth melted.
7 The
LORD of Armies is
with us.
The God of Jacob
is our refuge.
Selah.
8 Come, see
the LORD’s works,
what desolations he has
made in the earth.
9 He
makes wars cease to
the end of
the earth.
He breaks the bow,
and shatters the spear.
He burns the chariots
in the fire.
10 “Be
still, and know
that I am God.
I will be exalted
among the nations.
I will be exalted
in the earth.”
11 The
LORD of Armies is
with us.
The God of Jacob
is our refuge.
Selah.
