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
To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. On Alamoth. A song.
1God#GodHebrew: Elohim is our refuge and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found. 2Therefore will we not fear though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the heart of the seas; 3Though the waters thereof roar and foam, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. 4There is a river the streams whereof make glad the city of God#GodHebrew: Elohim the sanctuary of the habitations of the Most High. 5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God#GodHebrew: Elohim shall help her at the dawn of the morning.
6The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; he uttered his voice, the earth melted. 7Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of Jacob is our high fortress. Selah. 8Come, behold the works of Jehovah, what desolations he hath made in the earth: 9He hath made wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariots in the fire. 10Be still, and know that I am God#GodHebrew: Elohim I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. 11Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of Jacob is our high fortress. Selah.
