46 God is our protection and source of strength.

and the mountains fall into the sea.
³ We are not afraid when the seas become rough and dark
and the mountains tremble. Selah

⁴ There is a river whose streams bring happiness to God’s city,
to the holy city of God Most High.
⁵ God is in that city, so it will never be destroyed.
He is there to help even before sunrise.
⁶ Nations will shake with fear and kingdoms will fall
when God shouts and makes the earth move.
⁷ The Lord All-Powerful is with us.
The God of Jacob is our place of safety. Selah

⁸ Look at the powerful things the Lord has done.
See the awesome things he has done on earth.
⁹ He stops wars all over the world.
He breaks the soldiers’ bows, shatters their spears, and burns their shields. ^{[ b ]}

¹⁰ God says, “Stop fighting and know that I am God!
I am the one who defeats the nations;
I am the one who controls the world.”

¹¹ The Lord All-Powerful is with us.
The God of Jacob is our place of safety. Selah
