For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah; set to Alamoth. A Song.
1God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
2Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change,
And though the mountains be shaken into the heart of the seas;
3Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains tremble with the swelling thereof. [Selah
4There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God,
The holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.
5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved:
God will help her, and that right early.
6The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved:
He uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7Jehovah of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. [Selah
8Come, behold the works of Jehovah,
What desolations he hath made in the earth.
9He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth;
He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder;
He burneth the chariots in the fire.
10Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
11Jehovah of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. [Selah
