Psalms, 46

To the director. Of the sons of Koʹrah upon The Maidens.^*1 A song.

¹ God^*1 is for us a refuge and strength, A help that is readily to be found during distresses.

² That is why we shall not fear, though the earth undergo change And though the mountains totter into the heart of the vast sea;

³ Though its waters be boisterous, foam over, Though the mountains rock at its uproar. Seʹlah.

⁴ There is a river the streams of which make the city of God rejoice, The holiest grand tabernacle^*1 of the Most High.

⁵ God is in the midst of [the city];^*1 it will not be made to totter. God will help it at the appearance of morning.

⁶ The nations became boisterous, the kingdoms tottered; He sounded^*1 with his voice, the earth proceeded to melt.

⁷ Jehovah^*1 of armies is with us; The God^*2 of Jacob is a secure height for us. Seʹlah.

⁸ Come, YOU people, behold the activities of Jehovah,^*1 How he has set astonishing events on the earth.

⁹ He is making wars to cease to the extremity^*1 of the earth. The bow he breaks apart and does cut the spear in pieces; The wagons^*2 he burns in the fire.

¹⁰ “Give in, YOU people, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

¹¹ Jehovah^*1 of armies is with us; The God of Jacob is a secure height for us. Seʹlah.
