““Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted over the earth.””

Psalms 46:10

Save as image

Study note

Psalms 46 is a song of the sons of Korah, a family of Temple musicians, celebrating God as the refuge of his people when the earth shakes and nations rage. Many connect it with Jerusalem's deliverance from the Assyrian army in Hezekiah's day, though the psalm itself does not say.
