PSALM 46
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief Musician, for the sons of Korah,
A Song upon Alomoth.
1God is our refuge and our strength,
in straits a present aid;
2Therefore, although the earth remove,
we will not be afraid:
Though hills amidst the seas be cast;
3Though waters roaring make,
And troubled be; yea, though the hills,
by swelling seas do shake.
4A river is, whose streams do glad
the city of our God;
The holy place, wherein the Lord
most high hath his abode.
5God in the midst of her doth dwell;
nothing shall her remove:
The Lord to her an helper will,
and that right early, prove.
6The heathen rag'd tumultuously,
the kingdoms moved were:
The Lord God uttered his voice,
the earth did melt for fear.
7The Lord of hosts upon our side
doth constantly remain:
The God of Jacob's our refuge,
us safely to maintain.
8Come, and behold what wondrous works
have by the Lord been wrought;
Come, see what desolations
he on the earth hath brought.
9Unto the ends of all the earth
wars into peace he turns:
The bow he breaks, the spear he cuts,
in fire the chariot burns.
10Be still, and know that I am God;
among the heathen I
Will be exalted; I on earth
will be exalted high.
11Our God, who is the Lord of hosts,
is still upon our side;
The God of Jacob our refuge
for ever will abide.

Psalm 46
46
1 Unto the end. A Psalm for the sons of Korah.
2 All nations, clap your hands. Shout joyfully to God with a voice of exultation.
3 For the Lord is exalted and terrible: a great King over all the earth.
4 He has subjected the peoples to us and subdued the nations under our feet.
5 He has chosen us for his inheritance: the splendor of Jacob, whom he has loved.
6 God ascends with jubilation, and the Lord with the voice of the trumpet.
7 Sing psalms to our God, sing psalms. Sing psalms to our King, sing psalms.
8 For God is the King of all the earth. Sing psalms wisely.
9 God will reign over the peoples. God sits upon his holy throne.
10 The leaders of the peoples have been gathered together by the God of Abraham. For the strong gods of the earth have been exceedingly exalted.
