Psalms 46

1 To him that excelleth upon Alamoth a song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God is our hope and strength, and helpe in troubles, ready to be found.

To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah, on Alamoth. A Song. God—for us, is a refuge and strength, A help in distresses, soon found.

2 Therefore will not we feare, though the earth be moued, and though the mountaines fall into the middes of the sea.

For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip into the heart of the seas:

3 Though the waters thereof rage and be troubled, and the mountaines shake at the surges of the same. (Selah)

The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)

4 Yet there is a Riuer, whose streames shall make glad the citie of God: euen the Sanctuarie of the Tabernacles of the most High.

A river! whose channels, shall gladden the city of God, The Most High, hath hallowed his habitation.

5 God is in the middes of it: therefore shall it not be moued: God shall helpe it very earely.

God, is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.

6 When the nations raged, and the kingdomes were moued, God thundred, and the earth melted.

Nations have roared, Kingdoms have tottered, He hath uttered his voice, Earth melteth.

7 The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. (Selah)

Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)

8 Come, and behold the workes of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

Come! view the doings of Yahweh, —Who hath set desolations in the earth;

9 He maketh warres to cease vnto the endes of the world: he breaketh the bowe and cutteth the speare, and burneth the chariots with fire.

Causing wars to cease unto the end of the earth, —The bow, he shivereth, And breaketh in pieces the spear, war-chariots, burneth he up with fire.

10 Be still and knowe that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, and I wil be exalted in the earth.

Let be! and know that, I, am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

11 The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. (Selah)

Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
