Psalm 46

New King James Version

God the Refuge of His People and Conqueror of the Nations

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song ^(A)for Alamoth.

46 God is our ^(B)refuge and strength,
^(C)A^[a] very present help in trouble.
²Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the ^[b]midst of the sea;
³^(D)Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

⁴There is a ^(E)river whose streams shall make glad the ^(F)city of God,
The holy place of the ^[c]tabernacle of the Most High.
⁵God is ^(G)in the midst of her, she shall not be ^[d]moved;
God shall help her, just ^[e]at the break of dawn.
⁶^(H)The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;
He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

⁷The ^(I)Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

⁸Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has made desolations in the earth.
⁹^(J)He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
^(K)He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
^(L)He burns the chariot in the fire.

¹⁰Be still, and know that I am God;
^(M)I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!

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

¹⁹and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, ^(A)according to the working of His mighty power ²⁰which He worked in Christ when ^(B)He raised Him from the dead and ^(C)seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, ²¹^(D)far above all ^(E)principality^[a] and ^[b]power and ^[c]might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

²²And ^(F)He put all things under His feet, and gave Him ^(G)to be head over all things to the church, ²³^(H)which is His body, ^(I)the fullness of Him ^(J)who fills all in all.
