Psalm 46
God Our Refuge
For the choir director. A song of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.
1God is our refuge and strength,
a helper who is always found
in times of trouble.
2Therefore we will not be afraid,
though the earth trembles
and the mountains topple
into the depths of the seas,
3though its water roars and foams
and the mountains quake with its turmoil.Selah
4There is a river —
its streams delight the city of God,
the holy dwelling place of the Most High.
5God is within her; she will not be toppled.
God will help her when the morning dawns.
6Nations rage, kingdoms topple;
the earth melts when he lifts his voice.
7The Lord of Armies is with us;
the God of Jacob is our stronghold.Selah
8Come, see the works of the Lord,
who brings devastation on the earth.
9He makes wars cease throughout the earth.
He shatters bows and cuts spears to pieces;
he sets wagons ablaze.
10“Stop fighting, and know that I am God,
exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth.”
11The Lord of Armies is with us;
the God of Jacob is our stronghold.Selah
