Psalm 46:1-11

(Of the Director; of the sons of Korah; in falsetto voices. A song.) 46  God is to us refuge and strength,a most accessible help in distress. 2  Therefore we will not be afraid when earth changesand mountains rock in the heart of the sea, 3  Its water roars and foams,mountains shake with its fury. (Selah) 4  A river’s channels gladden the city of God,holiest of dwelling-places of the Most High. 5  She has God within her; she will not rock;God will help her before the night is over. 6  Nations were in uproar, kingdoms rocked;he has sounded his voice, earth goes back and forth; 7  Jehovah of Armies is with us;we have Jacob’s God as our fastness. (Selah) 8  Come, view Jehovah’s doings,the awful work he has wrought on earth, 9  Silencing wars to the earth’s end,breaking bows and unheading spears,burning up carriages: 10  “Forbear, and know that I am God;I am seated on high among the nations,on high in the earth.” 11  Jehovah of Armies is with us;we have Jacob’s God as our fastness. (Selah)
