< 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.
In finem, filiis Core, pro arcanis. Psalmus. Deus noster refugium et virtus; adjutor in tribulationibus quæ invenerunt nos nimis.
2 For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip into the heart of the seas:
Propterea non timebimus dum turbabitur terra, et transferentur montes in cor maris.
3 The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)
Sonuerunt, et turbatæ sunt aquæ eorum; conturbati sunt montes in fortitudine ejus.
4 A river! whose channels, shall gladden the city of God, The Most High, hath hallowed his habitation.
Fluminis impetus lætificat civitatem Dei: sanctificavit tabernaculum suum Altissimus.
5 God, is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.
Deus in medio ejus, non commovebitur; adjuvabit eam Deus mane diluculo.
6 Nations have roared, Kingdoms have tottered, He hath uttered his voice, Earth melteth.
Conturbatæ sunt gentes, et inclinata sunt regna: dedit vocem suam, mota est terra.
7 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
Dominus virtutum nobiscum; susceptor noster Deus Jacob.
8 Come! view the doings of Yahweh, —Who hath set desolations in the earth;
Venite, et videte opera Domini, quæ posuit prodigia super terram,
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.
auferens bella usque ad finem terræ. Arcum conteret, et confringet arma, et scuta comburet igni.
10 Let be! and know that, I, am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
Vacate, et videte quoniam ego sum Deus; exaltabor in gentibus, et exaltabor in terra.
11 Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
Dominus virtutum nobiscum; susceptor noster Deus Jacob.
