The LORD of Hosts Is With Us

Psalm 46

¹ God is our refuge and strength,

a very present help in trouble.

² Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,

though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,

³ though its waters roar and foam,

though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah

⁴ There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,

the holy habitation of the Most High.

⁵ God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;

God will help her when morning dawns.

⁶ The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;

he utters his voice, the earth melts.

⁷ The LORD of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

⁸ Come, behold the works of the LORD,

how he has brought desolations on the earth.

⁹ He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;

he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;

he burns the chariots with fire.

¹⁰ “Be still, and know that I am God.

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!”

¹¹ The LORD of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
