Psalm 46
Gud är vår borg
1 För sångmästaren. En sång av Koras söner till alamót.[a]
2 Gud är vår tillflykt och vår starkhet,
en hjälp i nöden, väl beprövad.
3 Därför skall vi inte frukta, om än jorden skakar
och bergen störtar ner i havsdjupet,
4 om än havets vågor brusar och svallar,
så att bergen bävar vid dess uppror. Sela.
5 En ström går fram med flöden som ger glädje åt Guds stad,
åt den Högstes heliga boning.
6 Gud bor där inne, den vacklar inte,
Gud hjälper den när morgonen gryr.
7 Hednafolken larmar, riken vacklar,
han låter sin röst höras,
då smälter jorden.
8 Herren Sebaot är med oss,
Jakobs Gud är vår borg. Sela.
9 Kom och skåda Herrens verk!
Gärningar som väcker häpnad[b] gör han på jorden.
10 Han stillar strider över hela jorden,
bågen bryter han sönder och bräcker spjutet,
vagnarna bränner han upp i eld.
11 "Bli stilla och besinna att jag är Gud,
upphöjd bland hednafolken,
upphöjd på jorden."
12 Herren Sebaot är med oss,
Jakobs Gud är vår borg. Sela.

Complete Jewish Bible
46 (0) For the leader. By the descendants of Korach. On ‘alamot [high-pitched musical instruments?]. A song:
2 (1) God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
3 (2) Therefore we are unafraid,
even if the earth gives way,
even if the mountains tumble
into the depths of the sea,
4 (3) even if its waters rage and foam,
and mountains shake at its turbulence. (Selah)
5 (4) There is a river whose streams
gladden the city of God,
the holy habitation of ‘Elyon —
6 (5) God is in the city.
It will not be moved —
when daybreak comes, God will help it.
7 (6) Nations were in turmoil,
kingdoms were moved;
his voice thundered forth,
and the earth melted away.
8 (7) Adonai-Tzva’ot is with us,
our fortress, the God of Ya‘akov. (Selah)
9 (8) Come and see the works of Adonai,
the astounding deeds he has done on the earth.
10 (9) To the ends of the earth he makes wars cease —
he breaks the bow, snaps the spear,
burns the shields in the fire.
11 (10) “Desist, and learn that I am God,
supreme over the nations,
supreme over the earth.”
12 (11) Adonai-Tzva’ot is with us,
our fortress, the God of Ya‘akov. (Selah)
