- <To the chief music-maker.
Of the sons of Korah; put to Alamoth. A Song.>
God is our harbour and our strength, a very present help in trouble.
- 2
- 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
- Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion.
(Selah.)
- 4
- There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
- 5
- God has taken his place in her;
she will not be moved: he will come to her help at the dawn of morning.
- 6
- The nations were angry, the kingdoms were moved;
at the sound of his voice the earth became like wax.
- 7
- The Lord of armies is with us;
the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah.)
- 8
- Come, see the works of the Lord, the destruction which he has made in the earth.
- 9
- He puts an end to wars over all the earth;
by him the bow is broken, and the spear cut in two, and the carriage burned in the fire.
- 10
- Be at peace in the knowledge that I am God: I will be lifted up among the nations, I will be honoured through all the earth.
- 11
- The Lord of armies is with us;
the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah.)
