[46:3] though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling.
[46:4] There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High.

[46:6] The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts.

[46:8] Come, behold the works of the Lord, how he has brought desolations on the earth.
[46:9] He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire.
[46:10] “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
[46:11] The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
