Psalms 46

   |   

Psalm 46[a]

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.[b] A song.

1 God is our refuge(a) and strength,(b)
    an ever-present(c) help(d) in trouble.(e)
2 Therefore we will not fear,(f) though the earth give way(g)
    and the mountains fall(h) into the heart of the sea,(i)
3 though its waters roar(j) and foam(k)
    and the mountains quake(l) with their surging.[c]

4 There is a river(m) whose streams(n) make glad the city of God,(o)
    the holy place where the Most High(p) dwells.(q)
5 God is within her,(r) she will not fall;(s)
    God will help(t) her at break of day.
6 Nations(u) are in uproar,(v) kingdoms(w) fall;
    he lifts his voice,(x) the earth melts.(y)

7 The Lord Almighty(z) is with us;(aa)
    the God of Jacob(ab) is our fortress.(ac)

8 Come and see what the Lord has done,(ad)
    the desolations(ae) he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars(af) cease
    to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow(ag) and shatters the spear;
    he burns the shields[d] with fire.(ah)
10 He says, "Be still, and know that I am God;(ai)
    I will be exalted(aj) among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth."

11 The Lord Almighty is with us;
    the God of Jacob(ak) is our fortress.(al)
