Psalms 46 Comparison: Catholic Public Domain vs KJV with Apocrypha
Psalms 46
1Unto the end. A Psalm for the sons of Korah.
2All nations, clap your hands. Shout joyfully to God with a voice of exultation.
3For the Lord is exalted and terrible: a great King over all the earth.
4He has subjected the peoples to us and subdued the nations under our feet.
5He has chosen us for his inheritance: the splendor of Jacob, whom he has loved.
6God ascends with jubilation, and the Lord with the voice of the trumpet.
7Sing psalms to our God, sing psalms. Sing psalms to our King, sing psalms.
8For God is the King of all the earth. Sing psalms wisely.
9God will reign over the peoples. God sits upon his holy throne.
10The leaders of the peoples have been gathered together by the God of Abraham. For the strong gods of the earth have been exceedingly exalted.
Psalms 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.
