Psalms 46

For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.¹

¹ God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. ² Therefore we won’t be afraid, though the earth changes,
though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas; ³ though its waters roar and are troubled,
though the mountains tremble with their swelling. 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. ⁵ God is within her. She shall not be moved.
God will help her at dawn. ⁶ The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved.
He lifted his voice and the earth melted. ⁷ The LORD of Armies is with us.
The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah. ⁸ Come, see the LORD’s works,
what desolations he has made on 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. ¹⁰ “Be still, and know that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations.
I will be exalted on the earth.” ¹¹ The LORD of Armies is with us.
The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah.
