1 TO THE OVERSEER. BY SONS OF KORAH. FOR GIRLS’ [VOICES]. A SONG. God [is] our refuge and strength, A most sure help in adversities.

To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. 'For the Virgins.' — A song. God [is] to us a refuge and strength, A help in adversities found most surely.

2 Therefore we do not fear in the changing of earth, And in the slipping of mountains Into the heart of the seas.

Therefore we fear not in the changing of earth, And in the slipping of mountains Into the heart of the seas.

3 Roar—troubled are its waters, Mountains shake in its pride. (Selah)

4 A river—its streams make glad the city of God, Your holy place of the dwelling places of the Most High.

A river — its rivulets rejoice the city of God, Thy holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.

5 God [is] in her midst—she is not moved, God helps her at the turn of the morning!

God [is] in her midst — she is not moved, God doth help her at the turn of the morn!

6 Nations have been troubled, Kingdoms have been moved, He has given forth with His voice—earth melts.

Troubled have been nations, Moved have been kingdoms, He hath given forth with His voice, earth melteth.

7 YHWH of Hosts [is] with us, The God of Jacob [is] a tower for us. (Selah)

8 Come, see the works of YHWH, Who has done astonishing things in the earth,

9 Causing wars to cease, To the end of the earth, He shatters the bow, And He has cut apart the spear, He burns chariots with fire.

Causing wars to cease, Unto the end of the earth, the bow he shivereth, And the spear He hath cut asunder, Chariots he doth burn with fire.

10 Desist, and know that I [am] God, I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth.

Desist, and know that I [am] God, I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth.
