Psalm 46 ... Viewing the works of God through scripture

1 God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
 

2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed,
and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
 

4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God,
the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
 

5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved:
God shall help her, and that right early.
 

6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved:
He uttered his voice, the earth melted.
 

7 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
 

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,
what desolations HE hath made in the earth.
 

9 He 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.
 

10 Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

 

11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
