Psalms 46

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

1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. ✦

2 Therefore 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. ✦

5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. ✦

6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. ✦

7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. ✦

8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth. ✦

9 He 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. ✦

10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. ✦

11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. ✦
