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

Psalms 46
46
God Provides for and Protects His People
For the music director. Of the sons of Korah.
According to Alamoth. A song.#The Hebrew Bible counts the superscription as the first verse of the psalm; the English verse number is reduced by one
1God is our refuge and strength,
a very sufficient help in troubles.
2Therefore we will not fear though the earth change,
and though the mountains totter into the midst#Literally “heart” of the sea,
3though its waters roar and foam,
though mountains shake with its surging water. Selah
4There is a river whose streams gladden the city of God,
the holiest of the dwellings of the Most High.
5God is in the midst of her;
she will not be made to totter.
God will help her at daybreak.#Literally “at the turning of the morning”
6Nations roar, kingdoms shake;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
7Yahweh of hosts is with us;
our high stronghold is the God of Jacob. Selah
8Come, see the works of Yahweh,
who has placed desolations on the earth.
9He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and cuts off the spear.
The wagons of war he burns with fire.
10Be still, and know that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations;
I will be exalted in the earth.
11Yahweh of Hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our high stronghold.
