2 There-fore not we will fear when changes [the] earth and when shake mountains in [the] heart of [the] seas.

For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;

3 They will roar they will foam waters its they will shake mountains at swelling its (Selah)
