Psalms 46:7

Context

46:7 The Lord who commands armies is on our side! 1 

The God of Jacob 2  is our protector! 3  (Selah)

1 tn Heb “the Lord of hosts is with us.” The title “Lord of hosts” here pictures the Lord as a mighty warrior-king who leads armies into battle (see Ps 24:10). The military imagery is further developed in vv. 8-9.

2 tn That is, Israel, or Judah (see Ps 20:1).

3 tn Heb “our elevated place” (see Pss 9:9; 18:2).
