For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah.
According to alamoth. A song.
1
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
2
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging. Selah
4
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5
God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.
6
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
7
The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
8
Come and see the works of the LORD,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.
9
He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatter the spear, he burns the shields with fire.
10
"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
11
The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
