Psalm 46
For the choir director; a song by the descendants of Korah; according to alamoth.#46:0 Unknown musical term.
1God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in times of trouble.
2That is why we are not afraid
even when the earth quakes
or the mountains topple into the depths of the sea.
3Water roars and foams,
and mountains shake at the surging waves. Selah
4There is a river
whose streams bring joy to the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High lives.
5God is in that city.
It cannot fall.
God will help it at the break of dawn.
6Nations are in turmoil, and kingdoms topple.
The earth melts at the sound of ⌞God’s⌟ voice.
7The Lord of Armies is with us.
The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
8Come, see the works of the Lord,
the devastation he has brought to the earth.
9He puts an end to wars all over the earth.
He breaks an archer’s bow.
He cuts spears in two.
He burns chariots.
10Let go ⌞of your concerns⌟!
Then you will know that I am God.
I rule the nations.
I rule the earth.
11The Lord of Armies is with us.
The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah

Psalm 46

Psalm 46
For the director of music. A song of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.
1God is our place of safety. He gives us strength.
He is always there to help us in times of trouble.
2The earth may fall apart.
The mountains may fall into the middle of the sea.
But we will not be afraid.
3The waters of the sea may roar and foam.
The mountains may shake when the waters rise.
But we will not be afraid.
4God’s blessings are like a river. They fill the city of God with joy.
That city is the holy place where the Most High God lives.
5Because God is there, the city will not fall.
God will help it at the beginning of the day.
6Nations are in disorder. Kingdoms fall.
God speaks, and the people of the earth melt in fear.
7The Lord who rules over all is with us.
The God of Jacob is like a fort to us.
8Come and see what the Lord has done.
See the places he has destroyed on the earth.
9He makes wars stop from one end of the earth to the other.
He breaks every bow. He snaps every spear.
He burns every shield with fire.
10He says, “Be still, and know that I am God.
I will be honored among the nations.
I will be honored in the earth.”
11The Lord who rules over all is with us.
The God of Jacob is like a fort to us.
