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.

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 For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip 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 The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)

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

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

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 shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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