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: by the sons of Korach, upon 'Alamoth, a song.” God is our protection 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, even when the earth is transformed, and when mountains are moved into the heart of the seas;

3 The watris of hem sowneden, and weren troblid; hillis weren troblid togidere in the strengthe of hym.

[When] the waters thereof roar and foam, when mountains quake before his majesty. (Selah)

4 The feersnesse of flood makith glad the citee of God; the hiyeste God hath halewid his tabernacle.

[There] is a river, its rivulets cause to rejoice the city of God, the sanctuary of the dwellings 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 her midst; she shall not be moved: God will ever help her, at the dawning of [her] morning.

6 Hethene men weren disturblid togidere, and rewmes weren bowid doun; God yaf his vois, the erthe was moued.

Nations rage, kingdoms are moved: he letteth his voice be heard, the earth melteth away.

7 The Lord of vertues is with vs; God of Jacob is oure vptakere.

The Lord of hosts is with us; a defense unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)

8 Come ye, and se the werkis of the Lord; whiche wondris he hath set on the erthe.

Come, look at the deeds of the Lord, who hath made desolations on 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 causeth wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in pieces; he burneth wagons 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.

Leave off, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth.

11 The Lord of vertues is with vs; God of Jacob is oure vptakere.

The Lord of hosts is with us; a defence unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
