< Psalmorum 46 >
1 in finem pro filiis Core pro arcanis psalmus Deus noster refugium et virtus adiutor in tribulationibus quae invenerunt nos nimis
“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 propterea non timebimus dum turbabitur terra et transferentur montes in cor maris
Therefore will we not fear, even when the earth is transformed, and when mountains are moved into the heart of the seas;
3 sonaverunt et turbatae sunt aquae eorum conturbati sunt montes in fortitudine eius diapsalma
[When] the waters thereof roar and foam, when mountains quake before his majesty. (Selah)
4 fluminis impetus laetificat civitatem Dei sanctificavit tabernaculum suum Altissimus
[There] is a river, its rivulets cause to rejoice the city of God, the sanctuary of the dwellings of the Most High.
5 Deus in medio eius non commovebitur adiuvabit eam Deus mane diluculo
God is in her midst; she shall not be moved: God will ever help her, at the dawning of [her] morning.
6 conturbatae sunt gentes inclinata sunt regna dedit vocem suam mota est terra
Nations rage, kingdoms are moved: he letteth his voice be heard, the earth melteth away.
7 Dominus virtutum nobiscum susceptor noster Deus Iacob diapsalma
The Lord of hosts is with us; a defense unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
8 venite et videte opera Domini quae posuit prodigia super terram
Come, look at the deeds of the Lord, who hath made desolations on the earth.
9 auferens bella usque ad finem terrae arcum conteret et confringet arma et scuta conburet in igne
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 vacate et videte quoniam ego sum Deus exaltabor in gentibus exaltabor in terra
Leave off, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth.
11 Dominus virtutum nobiscum susceptor noster Deus Iacob
The Lord of hosts is with us; a defence unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
