Psalm 46
1 God is
our refuge and strength, a very present help in
trouble.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be
removed, and though the mountains be carried into
the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
though the mountains shake with the swelling
thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make
glad the city of God, the holy place of the
tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be
moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he
uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is
our refuge. Selah.
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, what
desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth;
he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in
sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be
exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the
earth.
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is
our refuge. Selah.

- The Book of David
The Book of Psalms which contains Psalm 46 is also referred to
as the Book of David. David reigned over Judah and Israel
was the second king of the united Kingdom of Israel. King
David is credited with the authorship of many of the Psalms
and the collection is therefore often referred to as the
Book of David. |
