< Psalms 46 >
1 For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
To him that excelleth upon Alamoth a song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God is our hope and strength, and helpe in troubles, ready to be found.
2 Therefore we won’t be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;
Therefore will not we feare, though the earth be moued, and though the mountaines fall into the middes of the sea.
3 though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)
Though the waters thereof rage and be troubled, and the mountaines shake at the surges of the same. (Selah)
4 There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
Yet there is a Riuer, whose streames shall make glad the citie of God: euen the Sanctuarie of the Tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is within her. She shall not be moved. God will help her at dawn.
God is in the middes of it: therefore shall it not be moued: God shall helpe it very earely.
6 The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice and the earth melted.
When the nations raged, and the kingdomes were moued, God thundred, and the earth melted.
7 The LORD of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. (Selah)
8 Come, see the LORD’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth.
Come, and behold the workes of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.
He maketh warres to cease vnto the endes of the world: he breaketh the bowe and cutteth the speare, and burneth the chariots with fire.
10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted amongst the nations. I will be exalted in the earth.”
Be still and knowe that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, and I wil be exalted in the earth.
11 The LORD of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. (Selah)
