Salmos 46

To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.

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

4There is

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.

A guerra e a destruição são inevitáveis, mas também o é a vitória final de Deus. Nesse momento, todos permanecerão em silencio ante o Deus Todo-poderoso. Quão oportuno é para nós estar quietos honrando e reverenciando seu poder e majestade. Dedique cada dia o tempo necessário para permanecer quieto e exaltar a Deus.

11The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
