Psalm 46

Lutherbibel 2017

von Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft

Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott

1 Ein Lied der Korachiter, vorzusingen, nach der Weise »Junge Frauen«. 

2 Gott ist unsre Zuversicht und Stärke, eine Hilfe in den großen Nöten, die uns getroffen haben. 

3 Darum fürchten wir uns nicht, wenngleich die Welt unterginge und die Berge mitten ins Meer sänken, 

4 wenngleich das Meer wütete und wallte und von seinem Ungestüm die Berge einfielen. Sela. 

5 Dennoch soll die Stadt Gottes fein lustig bleiben mit ihren Brünnlein, da die heiligen Wohnungen des Höchsten sind. (Jes 12,3) 

6 Gott ist bei ihr drinnen, darum wird sie fest bleiben; Gott hilft ihr früh am Morgen. 

7 Die Völker müssen verzagen und die Königreiche fallen, das Erdreich muss vergehen, wenn er sich hören lässt. 

8 Der HERR Zebaoth ist mit uns, der Gott Jakobs ist unser Schutz. Sela. 

9 Kommt her und schauet die Werke des HERRN, der auf Erden solch ein Zerstören anrichtet, (2Kön 19,35) 

10 der den Kriegen ein Ende macht in aller Welt, der Bogen zerbricht, Spieße zerschlägt und Wagen mit Feuer verbrennt. (Ps 76,4) 

11 Seid stille und erkennet, dass ich Gott bin! Ich will mich erheben unter den Völkern, ich will mich erheben auf Erden. 

12 Der HERR Zebaoth ist mit uns, der Gott Jakobs ist unser Schutz. Sela.

Psalm 46

New International Reader’s Version

von Biblica

For the director of music. A song of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.

1 God is our place of safety. He gives us strength. He is always there to help us in times of trouble. 

2 The earth may fall apart. The mountains may fall into the middle of the sea. But we will not be afraid. 

3 The waters of the sea may roar and foam. The mountains may shake when the waters rise. But we will not be afraid. 

4 God’s blessings are like a river. They fill the city of God with joy. That city is the holy place where the Most High God lives. 

5 Because God is there, the city will not fall. God will help it at the beginning of the day. 

6 Nations are in disorder. Kingdoms fall. God speaks, and the people of the earth melt in fear. 

7 The LORD who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us. 

8 Come and see what the LORD has done. See the places he has destroyed on the earth. 

9 He makes wars stop from one end of the earth to the other. He breaks every bow. He snaps every spear. He burns every shield with fire. 

10 He says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God. I will be honoured among the nations. I will be honoured in the earth.’ 

11 The LORD who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us.

1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. (5Mo 4,7; Ps 9,9; Ps 14,6; Ps 145,18) 

2 Therefore we will not fear though the earth give way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, (Ps 18,7; Hes 27,26) 

3 though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah (Ps 93,3; Ps 93,4; Jer 5,22) 

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High. (Ps 36,8; Ps 43,3; Ps 48,1; Ps 65,9; Ps 84,1; Ps 87,3; Jes 8,6; Jes 33,21; Jes 60,14; Offb 22,1; Offb 22,2) 

5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns. (3Mo 26,12; 5Mo 23,14; Jes 12,6; Hes 43,7; Hes 43,9; Hos 11,9; Joe 2,27; Zef 3,15; Sach 2,5; Sach 2,10; Sach 2,11; Sach 8,3) 

6 The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts. (2Mo 15,15; Jos 2,9; Jos 2,24; Ps 2,1; Ps 18,13; Ps 68,33; Ps 76,8; Jer 25,30; Joe 2,11; Joe 3,16; Am 1,2; Am 9,5) 

7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah (4Mo 14,9; 2Chr 13,12; 2Chr 20,17; Ps 46,11) 

8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, how he has brought desolations on the earth. (Ps 66,5) 

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. (1Sam 2,4; Ps 76,3; Jes 2,4; Hes 39,9; Mi 4,3) 

10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” (2Mo 14,13; Jes 2,11; Jes 2,17; Jes 33,10) 

11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah (Ps 46,7)
