Psalms 46

1 For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah; upon Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Unto the end, for the sons of Core, for the hidden. Our God is our refuge and strength: a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.

2 Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, and though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas;

Therefore we will not fear, when the earth shall be troubled; and the mountains shall be removed into the heart of the sea.

3 Though the waters thereof roar and foam, though the mountains shake at the swelling thereof. (Selah)

Their waters roared and were troubled: the mountains were troubled with his strength.

4 There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the holiest dwelling-place of the Most High.

The stream of the river maketh the city of God joyful: the most High hath sanctified his own tabernacle.

5 God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, at the approach of morning.

God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: God will help it in the morning early.

6 Nations were in tumult, kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.

7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)

The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.

8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, who hath made desolations in the earth.

Come and behold ye the works of the Lord: what wonders he hath done upon earth,

9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariots in the fire.

Making wars to cease even to the end of the earth. He shall destroy the bow, and break the weapons: and the shield he shall burn in the fire.

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

Be still and see that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, and I will be exalted in the earth.

11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)

The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
