Psalms 46

To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.

1Godis our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.1 2Therefore will we not fear, though the earth shall be removed, and though the mountains shall be carried into the midst of the sea;2 3Though its waters shall roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah. 4There is a river, the streams of which shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. 5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.3

6The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. 7The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.4 8Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth. 9He maketh wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear asunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. 10Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 11The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
