Psalm 46

God is our refuge and strength,

A very present help in trouble.

Therefore, we will not fear,

though the earth should change

and though the mountains slip

into the heart of the sea;

Though its water roar and foam,

Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride.

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,

The holy dwelling places of the Most High.

God is in the midst of her,

she will not be moved;

God will help her when morning dawns.

The nations made an uproar,

The kingdoms tottered;

He raised His voice, the earth melted.

The Lord of Hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is our stronghold.

Come, behold the works of our Lord,

Who has brought desolations in the earth.

He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;

He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;

He burns the chariots with fire.

"Cease striving and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth."

The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
