< Psalms 46 >
1 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 For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip into the heart of the seas:
3 The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)
4 A river! whose channels, shall gladden the city of God, The Most High, hath hallowed his habitation.
5 God, is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.
6 Nations have roared, Kingdoms have tottered, He hath uttered his voice, Earth melteth.
7 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
8 Come! view the doings of Yahweh, —Who hath set desolations in the earth;
9 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 Let be! and know that, I, am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
