Psalms 46 YLT
Summary: A hymn of confident trust amid cosmic upheaval, Psalm 46 declares "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" even should mountains be "moved into the heart of the sea" (v. 1-2), contrasting roaring waters and nations in uproar with a river that gladdens the city of God. Its most famous line, spoken as God's own command amid the chaos, is "Be still, and know that I am God" (v. 10), a verse that inspired Martin Luther's hymn "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God." It closes with the refrain "the LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress" (v. 11).
1To the Overseer. --By sons of Korah. `For the Virgins.' --A song. God is to us a refuge and strength, A help in adversities found most surely.
2Therefore we fear not in the changing of earth, And in the slipping of mountains Into the heart of the seas.
3Roar--troubled are its waters, Mountains they shake in its pride. Selah.
4A river--its rivulets rejoice the city of God, Thy holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.
5God is in her midst--she is not moved, God doth help her at the turn of the morn!
6Troubled have been nations, Moved have been kingdoms, He hath given forth with His voice, earth melteth.
7Jehovah of Hosts is with us, A tower for us is the God of Jacob. Selah.
8Come ye, see the works of Jehovah, Who hath done astonishing things in the earth,
9Causing wars to cease, Unto the end of the earth, the bow he shivereth, And the spear He hath cut asunder, Chariots he doth burn with fire.
10Desist, and know that I am God, I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth.
11Jehovah of hosts is with us, A tower for us is the God of Jacob! Selah.
