Psalms 45

PSALM 45.

2Our God is our refuge and strength: a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.

3Therefore we will not fear, when the earth shall be troubled; and the mountains shall be removed into the heart of the sea.

4Their waters roared and were troubled: the mountains were troubled with his strength.

5The stream of the river maketh the city of God joyful: the most High hath sanctified his own tabernacle.

6God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: God will help it in the morning early.

7Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.

8The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.

9Come and behold ye the works of the Lord: what wonders he hath done upon earth,

10making wars to cease even to the end of the earth. He shall destroy the bow, and break the weapons: and the shield he shall burn in the fire.

11Be still and see that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, and I will be exalted in the earth.

12The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
