1 For the music director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah, set to Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, A very ready help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth shakes And the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;
3 Though its waters roar and foam, Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make the city of God happy, The holy dwelling places of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of her, she will not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns.
6 The nations made an uproar, the kingdoms tottered; He raised His voice, the earth quaked.
7 The LORD of armies is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, Who has inflicted horrific events on the earth.
9 He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariots with fire.
10 βStop striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth.β
11 The LORD of armies is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
