< Psalms 46 >

1 For the end, for the sons of Core; a Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ לִבְנֵי־קֹ֑רַח עַֽל־עֲלָמֹ֥ות שִֽׁיר׃ אֱלֹהִ֣ים לָ֭נוּ מַחֲסֶ֣ה וָעֹ֑ז עֶזְרָ֥ה בְ֝צָרֹ֗ות נִמְצָ֥א מְאֹֽד׃
2 Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
עַל־כֵּ֣ן לֹא־נִ֭ירָא בְּהָמִ֣יר אָ֑רֶץ וּבְמֹ֥וט הָ֝רִ֗ים בְּלֵ֣ב יַמִּֽים׃
3 Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by his might. (Pause)
יֶהֱמ֣וּ יֶחְמְר֣וּ מֵימָ֑יו יִֽרְעֲשֽׁוּ־הָרִ֖ים בְּגַאֲוָתֹ֣ו סֶֽלָה׃
4 The flowings of the river gladden the city of God: the Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
נָהָ֗ר פְּלָגָ֗יו יְשַׂמְּח֥וּ עִיר־אֱלֹהִ֑ים קְ֝דֹ֗שׁ מִשְׁכְּנֵ֥י עֶלְיֹֽון׃
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.
אֱלֹהִ֣ים בְּ֭קִרְבָּהּ בַּל־תִּמֹּ֑וט יַעְזְרֶ֥הָ אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים לִפְנֹ֥ות בֹּֽקֶר׃
6 The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered: he uttered his voice, the earth shook.
הָמ֣וּ גֹ֖ויִם מָ֣טוּ מַמְלָכֹ֑ות נָתַ֥ן בְּ֝קֹולֹ֗ו תָּמ֥וּג אָֽרֶץ׃
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. (Pause)
יְהוָ֣ה צְבָאֹ֣ות עִמָּ֑נוּ מִשְׂגָּֽב־לָ֝נוּ אֱלֹהֵ֖י יַעֲקֹ֣ב סֶֽלָה׃
8 Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders he has achieved on the earth.
לְֽכוּ־חֲ֭זוּ מִפְעֲלֹ֣ות יְהוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁר־שָׂ֖ם שַׁמֹּ֣ות בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
9 Putting an end to wars as for the ends of the earth; he will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with fire.
מַשְׁבִּ֥ית מִלְחָמֹות֮ עַד־קְצֵ֪ה הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ קֶ֣שֶׁת יְ֭שַׁבֵּר וְקִצֵּ֣ץ חֲנִ֑ית עֲ֝גָלֹ֗ות יִשְׂרֹ֥ף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
הַרְפּ֣וּ וּ֭דְעוּ כִּי־אָנֹכִ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים אָר֥וּם בַּ֝גֹּויִ֗ם אָר֥וּם בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper.
יְהוָ֣ה צְבָאֹ֣ות עִמָּ֑נוּ מִשְׂגָּֽב־לָ֝נוּ אֱלֹהֵ֖י יַעֲקֹ֣ב סֶֽלָה׃
