Psalms 46

1 God is our refuge and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.

1Unto the end, for the sons of Core.

2 Therefore will we not fear though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the heart of the seas;

2O clap your hands, all ye nations: shout unto God with the voice of joy,

3 Though the waters thereof roar [and] foam, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

3For the Lord is high, terrible: a great king over all the earth.

4 There is a river the streams whereof make glad the city ofGod, the sanctuary of the habitations of the Most High.

4He hath subdued the people under us; and the nations under our feet.

5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved:God shall help her at the dawn of the morning.

5He hath chosen for us his inheritance, the beauty of Jacob which he hath loved.

6 The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

6God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet.

7 Jehovah of hosts is with us; theGod of Jacob is our high fortress. Selah.

7Sing praises to our God, sing ye: sing praises to our king, sing ye.

8 Come, behold the works of Jehovah, what desolations he hath made in the earth:

8For God is the king of all the earth: sing ye wisely.

9 He 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.

9God shall reign over the nations: God sitteth on his holy throne.

10 Be still, and know that I amGod: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

10The princes of the people are gathered together, with the God of Abraham: for the strong gods of the earth are exceedingly exalted.

11 Jehovah of hosts is with us; theGod of Jacob is our high fortress. Selah.
