< Psalms 46 >
1 To the ouercomere, the song of the sones `of Chore, `for yongthis. Oure God, thou art refuyt, and vertu; helpere in tribulacions, that han founde vs greetly.
To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. On Alamoth. A song. God is our refuge and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.
2 Therfor we schulen not drede, while the erthe schal be troblid; and the hillis schulen be borun ouer in to the herte of the see.
Therefore will we not fear though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the heart of the seas;
3 The watris of hem sowneden, and weren troblid; hillis weren troblid togidere in the strengthe of hym.
Though the waters thereof roar [and] foam, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
4 The feersnesse of flood makith glad the citee of God; the hiyeste God hath halewid his tabernacle.
There is a river the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the sanctuary of the habitations of the Most High.
5 God in the myddis therof schal not be moued; God schal helpe it eerli in the grey morewtid.
God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her at the dawn of the morning.
6 Hethene men weren disturblid togidere, and rewmes weren bowid doun; God yaf his vois, the erthe was moued.
The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 The Lord of vertues is with vs; God of Jacob is oure vptakere.
Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
8 Come ye, and se the werkis of the Lord; whiche wondris he hath set on the erthe.
Come, behold the works of Jehovah, what desolations he hath made in the earth:
9 He doynge awei batels til to the ende of the lond; schal al to-brese bouwe, and schal breke togidere armuris, and schal brenne scheldis bi fier.
He hath made wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariots in the fire.
10 Yyue ye tent, and se ye, that Y am God; Y schal be enhaunsid among hethene men; and Y schal be enhaunsid in erthe.
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The Lord of vertues is with vs; God of Jacob is oure vptakere.
Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
