46
For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah; set to Alamoth. A song.
1 God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,
though the mountains should be shaken into the heart of the seas,
3 though its waters roar and rage, and
though the mountains tremble with their swelling.
Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make the city of God happy,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 God is in the middle of her; she will not be moved;
God will help her, and he will do so at the dawn of morning.
6 The nations raged and the kingdoms were shaken;
he lifted up his voice, and the earth melted.
7 Yahweh of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah
8 Come, behold the deeds of Yahweh,
the destruction he has caused on earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and cuts the spear into pieces;
he burns up the shields.
10 Be quiet and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations; I will be exalted on the earth.
11 Yahweh of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah
