Psalm 46

For the Music Director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A Song.

1 God is our refuge and strength,
    a well-proven help in trouble.

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

3 though its waters roar and foam,
    though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
    the holy dwelling place of the Most High.

5 God is in the midst of her; she will not be moved;
    God will help her in the early dawn.

6 The nations roared; 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, see the works of the Lord,
    who makes desolations in the earth.

9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
    He breaks the bow and cuts off the spear;
    He burns the chariot in the fire.

10 Be still and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.

11 The Lord of Hosts is with us;
    the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
