Psalms 46:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 46:4

2 Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the¹ midst of the sea;

3 ^aThough its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

4 There is a ^ariver whose streams shall make glad the ^bcity of God,
The holy place of the¹ tabernacle of the Most High.

5 God is ^ain the midst of her, she shall not be¹ moved;
God shall help her, just¹ at the break of dawn.

6 ^aThe nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;
He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

7 The ^aLord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has made desolations in the earth.

9 ^aHe makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
^bHe breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
^cHe burns the chariot in the fire.
