Psalm 46

¹God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
²Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
³Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
⁴There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
⁵God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
⁶The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
⁷The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
⁸Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
⁹He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
¹⁰Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
¹¹The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

¹²Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
¹³Before the Lord: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

43The pride of the height, the clear firmament, the beauty of heaven, with his glorious shew;
²The sun when it appeareth, declaring at his rising a marvellous instrument, the work of the most High:
³At noon it parcheth the country, and who can abide the burning heat thereof?
⁴A man blowing a furnace is in works of heat, but the sun burneth the mountains three times more; breathing out fiery vapours, and sending forth bright beams, it dimmeth the eyes.
⁵Great is the Lord that made it; and at his commandment runneth hastily.
⁶He made the moon also to serve in her season for a declaration of times, and a sign of the world.
⁷From the moon is the sign of feasts, a light that decreaseth in her perfection.
⁸The month is called after her name, increasing wonderfully in her changing, being an instrument of the armies above, shining in the firmament of heaven;
⁹The beauty of heaven, the glory of the stars, an ornament giving light in the highest places of the Lord.

¹¹And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
¹²But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
¹³But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
¹⁴Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
