Psalm 46

1  God is our refuge and strength, ♦︎
   a very present help in trouble;
2  Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be moved, ♦︎
   and though the mountains tremble in the heart of the sea;
3  Though the waters rage and swell, ♦︎
   and though the mountains quake at the towering seas.
4  There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, ♦︎
   the holy place of the dwelling of the Most High.
5  God is in the midst of her;
      therefore shall she not be removed; ♦︎
   God shall help her at the break of day.
6  The nations are in uproar and the kingdoms are shaken, ♦︎
   but God utters his voice and the earth shall melt away.
7  The Lord of hosts is with us; ♦︎
   the God of Jacob is our stronghold.
8  Come and behold the works of the Lord, ♦︎
   what destruction he has wrought upon the earth.
9  He makes wars to cease in all the world; ♦︎
   he shatters the bow and snaps the spear
      and burns the chariots in the fire.
10  ‘Be still, and know that I am God; ♦︎
   I will be exalted among the nations;
      I will be exalted in the earth.’
11  The Lord of hosts is with us; ♦︎
   the God of Jacob is our stronghold.

Psalm 47

1  Clap your hands together, all you peoples; ♦︎
   O sing to God with shouts of joy.
2  For the Lord Most High is to be feared; ♦︎
   he is the great King over all the earth.
3  He subdued the peoples under us ♦︎
   and the nations under our feet.
4  He has chosen our heritage for us, ♦︎
   the pride of Jacob, whom he loves.
5  God has gone up with a merry noise, ♦︎
   the Lord with the sound of the trumpet.
6  O sing praises to God, sing praises; ♦︎
   sing praises to our King, sing praises.
7  For God is the King of all the earth; ♦︎
   sing praises with all your skill.
8  God reigns over the nations; ♦︎
   God has taken his seat upon his holy throne.
9  The nobles of the peoples are gathered together ♦︎
   with the people of the God of Abraham.
10  For the powers of the earth belong to God ♦︎
   and he is very highly exalted.
