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
46
God Is Our Refuge and Strength
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Al´amoth.
1God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
2Therefore will not we fear,
though the earth be removed,
and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof 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.
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.
8Come, behold the works of the Lord,
what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth;
he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder;
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.
