  • Ps 46:1-9 : 1 For the music director; by the Korahites; according to the alamoth style; a song. God is our strong refuge; he is truly our helper in times of trouble. 2 For this reason we do not fear when the earth shakes, and the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea, 3 when its waves crash and foam, and the mountains shake before the surging sea.(Selah) 4 The river’s channels bring joy to the city of God, the special, holy dwelling place of the Most High. 5 God lives within it, it cannot be moved. God rescues it at the break of dawn. 6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms are overthrown. God gives a shout, the earth dissolves. 7 The LORD of Heaven’s Armies is on our side! The God of Jacob is our protector!(Selah) 8 Come! Witness the exploits of the LORD, who brings devastation to the earth! 9 He brings an end to wars throughout the earth; he shatters the bow and breaks the spear; he burns the shields with fire. 10 He says,“Stop your striving and recognize that I am God! I will be exalted over the nations! I will be exalted over the earth!” 11 The LORD of Heaven’s Armies is on our side! The God of Jacob is our protector!(Selah)
