Psalms • Chapter 46

1 For the music director by the sons of Korah. According to alamoth, a song. God (Elohim) is our protection and our strength; always ready to help when troubles come. 2 So we will not be afraid though the earth shakes, though the mountains fall into the depths of the sea, 3 though the waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble as the waters surge violently! Selah. 4 A river flows to bring happiness to those in God (Elohim)'s city, the holy place where the Most High lives. 5 God (Elohim) is in the midst of the city; it will never fall. God (Elohim) protects it as soon as it is light. 6 Nations are in turmoil, kingdoms collapse. God (Elohim) raises his voice and the earth melts. 7 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God (Elohim) of Jacob protects us. Selah. 8 Come and see what the Lord has achieved! See the amazing things he has done on the earth! 9 He stops wars all over the world. He smashes the bow; he breaks the spear; he sets shields on fire. 10 Stop fighting! Recognize I am God (Elohim)! I am the ruler of the nations; I am the ruler of the earth. 11 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God (Elohim) of Jacob protects us. Selah.
