1(46) For the end, for the sons of Core; a Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
1God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
2Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by his might. Pause.
3Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4The flowings of the river gladden the city of God: the Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
4There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.
5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered: he uttered his voice, the earth shook.
6The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. Pause.
7The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders he has achieved on the earth.
8Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9Putting an end to wars as for the ends of the earth; he will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with fire.
9He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
10Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper.
11The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
