Psalms 46:9 in Context — Psalms 46

7 Des nations s’agitent, des royaumes s’ébranlent; Il fait entendre sa voix: la terre se fond d’épouvante.

8 L’Éternel des armées est avec nous, Le Dieu de Jacob est pour nous une haute retraite. — Pause.

9 Venez, contemplez les œuvres de l’Éternel, Les ravages qu’il a opérés sur la terre!

10 C’est lui qui a fait cesser les combats jusqu’au bout de la terre; Il a brisé l’arc, et il a rompu la lance, Il a consumé par le feu les chars de guerre.

11 Arrêtez, et sachez que je suis Dieu: Je domine sur les nations, je domine sur la terre.
