Psalms 46

New Living Translation (NLT)

Switch Version:

¹ For the choir director: A song of the descendants of Korah, to be sung by soprano voices.[59] God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.

² So we will not fear when earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea.

³ Let the oceans roar and foam. Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge! Interlude

⁴ A river brings joy to the city of our God, the sacred home of the Most High.

⁵ God dwells in that city; it cannot be destroyed. From the very break of day, God will protect it.

⁶ The nations are in chaos, and their kingdoms crumble! God’s voice thunders, and the earth melts!

⁷ The LORD of Heaven’s Armies is here among us; the God of Israel[60] is our fortress. Interlude

⁸ Come, see the glorious works of the LORD: See how he brings destruction upon the world.

⁹ He causes wars to end throughout the earth. He breaks the bow and snaps the spear; he burns the shields with fire.

¹⁰ “Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.”

¹¹ The LORD of Heaven’s Armies is here among us; the God of Israel is our fortress. Interlude
