To the director: A song from the Korah family. Use the alamoth.[a] A song.

46 God is our protection and source of strength.
    He is always ready to help us in times of trouble.
So we are not afraid when the earth quakes
    and the mountains fall into the sea.
We are not afraid when the seas become rough and dark
    and the mountains tremble. Selah

There is a river whose streams bring happiness to God’s city,
    to the holy city of God Most High.
God is in that city, so it will never be destroyed.
    He is there to help even before sunrise.
Nations will shake with fear and kingdoms will fall
    when God shouts and makes the earth move.
The Lord All-Powerful is with us.
    The God of Jacob is our place of safety. Selah

  1. Psalm 46:1 Psalm 46 alamoth This might be a musical instrument, a special way of tuning an instrument, a music style, or one of the groups that played harps in the Temple orchestra. See 1 Chron. 15:21.

46 1-3 God is a safe place to hide,
    ready to help when we need him.
We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom,
    courageous in seastorm and earthquake,
Before the rush and roar of oceans,
    the tremors that shift mountains.

    Jacob-wrestling God fights for us,
    God-of-Angel-Armies protects us.

4-6 River fountains splash joy, cooling God’s city,
    this sacred haunt of the Most High.
God lives here, the streets are safe,
    God at your service from crack of dawn.
Godless nations rant and rave, kings and kingdoms threaten,
    but Earth does anything he says.

    Jacob-wrestling God fights for us,
    God-of-Angel-Armies protects us.

Psalm 46

For the choir director: A song of the descendants of Korah, to be sung by soprano voices.[a]

God is our refuge and strength,
    always ready to help in times of trouble.
So we will not fear when earthquakes come
    and the mountains crumble into the sea.
Let the oceans roar and foam.
    Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge! Interlude

A river brings joy to the city of our God,
    the sacred home of the Most High.
God dwells in that city; it cannot be destroyed.
    From the very break of day, God will protect it.
The nations are in chaos,
    and their kingdoms crumble!
God’s voice thunders,
    and the earth melts!
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;
    the God of Israel[b] is our fortress. Interlude
