To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah, on Alamoth. A Song. God—for us, is a refuge and strength, A help in distresses, soon found.
2 Therefore will we not fear though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the heart of the seas;
For this cause, will we not fear, Though the earth showeth change, Or the mountains slip into the heart of the seas:
3 Though the waters thereof roar [and] foam, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
The waters thereof roar and foam, The mountains tremble with the swelling thereof (Selah)
4 There is a river the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the sanctuary of the habitations of the Most High.
A river! whose channels, shall gladden the city of God, The Most High, hath hallowed his habitation.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her at the dawn of the morning.
God, is in the midst of her, she shall not be shaken, God will help her, by the turnings of the morning.
6 The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
Nations have roared, Kingdoms have tottered, He hath uttered his voice, Earth melteth.
7 Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
8 Come, behold the works of Jehovah, what desolations he hath made in the earth:
Come! view the doings of Yahweh, —Who hath set desolations in the earth;
9 He hath made wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariots in the fire.
Causing wars to cease unto the end of the earth, —The bow, he shivereth, And breaketh in pieces the spear, war-chariots, burneth he up with fire.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
Let be! and know that, I, am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
11 Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
Yahweh of hosts, is with us, A high tower for us, is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
