Psalm 46

MSG

WEB

1 God is a safe place to hide, ready to help when we need him.
1 <<For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. A song for Alamoth.>> God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.
2 We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom, courageous in seastorm and earthquake,
2 Therefore will we not be afraid, though the earth changes, Though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;
3 Before the rush and roar of oceans, the tremors that shift mountains. Jacob-wrestling God fights for us, God of angel armies protects us.
3 Though the waters of it roar and are troubled, Though the mountains tremble with the swelling of it. Selah.
4 River fountains splash joy, cooling God's city, this sacred haunt of the Most High.
4 There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, The holy place of the tents of the Most High.
5 God lives here, the streets are safe, God at your service from crack of dawn.
5 God is in the midst of her. She shall not be moved. God will help her at dawn.
6 Godless nations rant and rave, kings and kingdoms threaten, but Earth does anything he says.
6 The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He uttered his voice, and the earth melted.
7 Jacob-wrestling God fights for us, God of angel armies protects us.
7 Yahweh of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8 Attention, all! See the marvels of God! He plants flowers and trees all over the earth,
8 Come, see the works of Yahweh, What desolations he has made in the earth.
9 Bans war from pole to pole, breaks all the weapons across his knee.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and cuts the spear apart. He burns the chariots in the fire.
10 "Step out of the traffic! Take a long, loving look at me, your High God, above politics, above everything."
10 "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth."
11 Jacob-wrestling God fights for us, God of angel armies protects us.
11 Yahweh of Hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
