"we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the welling thereof." -Ps 46:2,3 KJV
"With God on our side, how irrational would fear be! Where he is all power is, and all love, why therefore should we quail? Though the earth be removed, though the basis of all visible things should be so convulsed as to be entirely changed." -CH Spurgeon
"When, however, the sacred poet says, Will not fear, he is not to be understood as meaning that the minds of the godly are exempt from all solicitude or fear, as if they were destitute of feeling, for there is a great difference between insensibility and the confidence of faith." -John Calvin
"'Though the earth be moved, and the mountains fall into the midst of the sea', are hyperbolic modes of expression, but they nevertheless denote a revolution, and turning upside down of the whole world." -John Calvin
"Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
He 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.
Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth." -Ps 46:8-10 KJV
