For the Chief Musician. By the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

2 Enti sɛ asase ani dan butuw, na mmepɔw tutu kogu po ase a, yɛrensuro,

Therefore we will not be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;

3 sɛ po bɔ asorɔkye na ehuru na ɛma nkoko wosow mpo a, yɛrensuro.

though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. (Selah)

4 Asuten bi wɔ hɔ a ne nsuwansuwa de anigye ba Onyankopɔn kuropɔn mu, beae kronkron a Ɔsorosoroni no te.

There is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.

5 Onyankopɔn te kuropɔn no mu, na ɔrenhwe ase; Onyankopɔn bɛboa no anɔpahema.

6 Amanaman yɛ hoo, na ahenni hwehwe ase; ɔma ne nne so ma asase nan.

The nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice and the earth melted.

8 Bra bɛhwɛ Awurade nnwuma, ɔsɛe a ɔde aba asase no so.

Come, see the LORD’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth.

9 Ɔma akodi gyae kosi asase ano. Obubu agyan mu na ɔsɛe peaw; ɔde ogya hyew nkatabo.

He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.

10 Monyɛ komm na munhu sɛ me ne Onyankopɔn; wɔbɛma me so wɔ amanaman no mu, wɔbɛma me so wɔ asase so.

“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth.”
