1God is our refuge and strength, a great help in times of distress.1For the choir director. A song of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a helper who is always found in times of trouble.
2Therefore we will not be frightened when the earth roars, when the mountains shake in the depths of the seas,2Therefore we will not be afraid, though the earth trembles and the mountains topple into the depths of the seas,
3when its waters roar and rage, when the mountains tremble despite their pride. Interlude3though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with its turmoil. Selah
4Look! There is a river whose streams make the city of God rejoice, even the Holy Place of the Most High.4There is a river-- its streams delight the city of God, the holy dwelling place of the Most High.
5Since God is in her midst, she will not be shaken. God will help her at the break of dawn.5God is within her; she will not be toppled. God will help her when the morning dawns.
6The nations roared; the kingdoms were shaken. His voice boomed; the earth melts.6Nations rage, kingdoms topple; the earth melts when He lifts His voice.
7The LORD of the heavenly armies is with us; our refuge is the God of Jacob. Interlude7The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
8Come, observe the mighty works of the LORD, who causes desolation in the earth.8Come, see the works of the LORD, who brings devastation on the earth.
9He causes wars to cease all over the earth, he causes the bow to break, the spear to snap, the chariots to ignite and burn.9He makes wars cease throughout the earth. He shatters bows and cuts spears to pieces; He burns up the chariots."
10Be in awe and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted throughout the earth.10Stop your fighting--and know that I am God, exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth."
11The LORD of the heavenly armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Interlude11Yahweh of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
