< Psalms 46 >

1 “To the chief musician: by the sons of Korach, upon 'Alamoth, a song.” God is our protection and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.
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, even when the earth is transformed, and when mountains are 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 [When] the waters thereof roar and foam, when mountains quake before his majesty. (Selah)
Their waters roared and were troubled: the mountains were troubled with his strength.
4 [There] is a river, its rivulets cause to rejoice the city of God, the sanctuary of the dwellings 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 her midst; she shall not be moved: God will ever help her, at the dawning of [her] morning.
God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: God will help it in the morning early.
6 Nations rage, kingdoms are moved: he letteth his voice be heard, the earth melteth away.
Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; a defense unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
8 Come, look at the deeds of the Lord, who hath made desolations on the earth.
Come and behold ye the works of the Lord: what wonders he hath done upon earth,
9 He causeth wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in pieces; he burneth wagons 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 Leave off, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on 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; a defence unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
