2 Therefore will we not fear, though the earth be changed; Though the mountains tremble in the heart of the sea;
Therefore we won't be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;
3 Though its waters roar and be troubled, And the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Pause)
though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)
4 A river with its streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy dwelling-place of the Most High.

8 Come, behold the doings of the LORD; What desolations he hath made in the earth!

He makes wars cease throughout the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.
10 “Desist, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted throughout the earth!”

11 The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.
The LORD of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
