Psalm 46:title–11

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.^b A song.

¹God is our refuge^m and strength,ⁿ

an ever-present^o help^p in trouble.^q

²Therefore we will not fear,^r though the earth give way^s

and the mountains fall^t into the heart of the sea,^u

³though its waters roar^v and foam^w

and the mountains quake^x with their surging.^c

⁴There is a river^y whose streams^z make glad the city of God,^a

the holy place where the Most High^b dwells.^c

⁵God is within her,^d she will not fall;^e

God will help^f her at break of day.

⁶Nations^g are in uproar,^h kingdomsⁱ fall;

he lifts his voice,^j the earth melts.^k

⁷The Lord Almighty^l is with us;^m

the God of Jacobⁿ is our fortress.^o

⁸Come and see what the Lord has done,^p

the desolations^q he has brought on the earth.

⁹He makes wars^r cease

to the ends of the earth.

He breaks the bow^s and shatters the spear;

he burns the shields^d with fire.^t

¹⁰He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;^u

I will be exalted^v among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth.”

¹¹The Lord Almighty is with us;

the God of Jacob^w is our fortress.^x
