< Psalms 46 >

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah; set to Alamoth. A song. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
לַמְנַצֵּחַ לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח עַֽל־עֲלָמוֹת שִֽׁיר׃ אֱלֹהִים לָנוּ מַחֲסֶה וָעֹז עֶזְרָה בְצָרוֹת נִמְצָא מְאֹֽד׃
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains should be shaken into the heart of the seas,
עַל־כֵּן לֹֽא־נִירָא בְּהָמִיר אָרֶץ וּבְמוֹט הָרִים בְּלֵב יַמִּֽים׃
3 though its waters roar and rage, and though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)
יֶהֱמוּ יֶחְמְרוּ מֵימָיו יִרְעֲשֽׁוּ הָרִים בְּגַאֲוָתוֹ סֶֽלָה׃
4 There is a river whose streams make the city of God happy, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
נָהָר פְּלָגָיו יְשַׂמְּחוּ עִיר־אֱלֹהִים קְדֹשׁ מִשְׁכְּנֵי עֶלְיֽוֹן׃
5 God is in the middle of her; she will not be moved; God will help her, and he will do so at the dawn of morning.
אֱלֹהִים בְּקִרְבָּהּ בַּל־תִּמּוֹט יַעְזְרֶהָ אֱלֹהִים לִפְנוֹת בֹּֽקֶר׃
6 The nations raged and the kingdoms were shaken; he lifted up his voice, and the earth melted.
הָמוּ גוֹיִם מָטוּ מַמְלָכוֹת נָתַן בְּקוֹלוֹ תָּמוּג אָֽרֶץ׃
7 Yahweh of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
יְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עִמָּנוּ מִשְׂגָּֽב־לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַֽעֲקֹב סֶֽלָה׃
8 Come, behold the deeds of Yahweh, the destruction he has caused on earth.
לְֽכוּ־חֲזוּ מִפְעֲלוֹת יְהֹוָה אֲשֶׁר־שָׂם שַׁמּוֹת בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and cuts the spear into pieces; he burns up the shields.
מַשְׁבִּית מִלְחָמוֹת עַד־קְצֵה הָאָרֶץ קֶשֶׁת יְשַׁבֵּר וְקִצֵּץ חֲנִית עֲגָלוֹת יִשְׂרֹף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
10 Be quiet and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations; I will be exalted on the earth.
הַרְפּוּ וּדְעוּ כִּֽי־אָנֹכִי אֱלֹהִים אָרוּם בַּגּוֹיִם אָרוּם בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
11 Yahweh of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
יְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת עִמָּנוּ מִשְׂגָּֽב־לָנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב סֶֽלָה׃
