Psalm 46:title–10

God the Refuge of His People.

For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah, ^†set to Alamoth. A Song.

¹God is our ^arefuge and strength,

¹A very ^bpresent help ^cin ²trouble.

²Therefore we will ^anot fear, though ^bthe earth should change

And though ^cthe mountains slip into the heart of the ¹sea;

³Though its ^awaters roar and foam,

Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride.

¹Selah.

⁴There is a ^ariver whose streams make glad the ^bcity of God,

The holy ^cdwelling places of the Most High.

⁵God is ^ain the midst of her, she will not be moved;

God will ^bhelp her ¹when morning dawns.

⁶The ¹nations ^amade an uproar, the kingdoms tottered;

He ^2braised His voice, the earth ^cmelted.

⁷The Lord of hosts ^ais with us;

The God of Jacob is ^bour stronghold.

Selah.

⁸Come, ^abehold the works of the Lord,

¹Who has wrought ^bdesolations in the earth.

⁹He ^amakes wars to cease to the end of the earth;

He ^bbreaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;

He ^cburns the chariots with fire.

¹⁰“¹Cease striving and ^aknow that I am God;

I will be ^bexalted among the ²nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
