Tehillim 46

2Elohim is our refuge and strength,

a very present help in tzoros.

3Therefore we will not fear,

though eretz be shaken,

and though the harim (mountains) fall

into the lev yamim (heart of the seas) ;

4Though the mayim thereof roar and be troubled,

though the harim shake with the surging thereof.

Selah

5There is a nahar (river) , the streams whereof shall make glad the Ir Elohim,

the Kedosh Mishkenei Elyon (the holy dwelling of the Most High) .

6Elohim is in the midst of it; it shall not be moved;[#46:6 i.e., the Ir Elohim]

Elohim shall help it at early boker.

7The Goyim raged, the kingdoms totter;

He uttered His voice, eretz melted.

8Hashem Tzva'os is with us;

Elohei Ya'akov is our stronghold.

Selah

9Come, behold the works of Hashem ,

what desolations He hath made in ha'aretz.

10He maketh milchamot to cease unto the end of ha'aretz;

He breaketh the keshet (bow) , and cutteth the khanit (spear) ;

He burneth the chariots in the eish.

11Be still, and know that I am Elohim:

I will be exalted among the Goyim,

I will be exalted in ha'aretz.

12Hashem Tzva'os is with us;

Elohei Ya'akov is our stronghold.

Selah
