Tehillim 46

(For the one directing. Of the Bnei Korach. Al-alamot.1 Shir)

Elohim is our refuge and strength,

a very present help in tzoros.

Therefore we will not fear,

though eretz be shaken,

and though the harim (mountains) fall

into the lev yamim (heart of the seas);

Though the mayim thereof roar and be troubled,

though the harim shake with the surging thereof.

Selah

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

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

Elohim is in the midst of it;2 it shall not be moved;

Elohim shall help it at early boker.

The Goyim raged, the kingdoms totter;

He uttered His voice, eretz melted.

Hashem Tzva'os is with us;

Elohei Ya'akov is our stronghold.

Selah

Come, behold the works of Hashem,

what desolations He hath made in ha'aretz.

He 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.

Be still, and know that I am Elohim:

I will be exalted among the Goyim,

I will be exalted in ha'aretz.

Hashem Tzva'os is with us;

Elohei Ya'akov is our stronghold.

Selah
