God the Refuge of His People.
For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah, †set to Alamoth. A Song.
1  God is our Arefuge and strength,
1A very Bpresent help Cin 2trouble.
2  Therefore we will Anot fear, though Bthe earth should change
And though Cthe mountains slip into the heart of the 1sea;
3 Though its Awaters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. 1
Selah.
 
4 There is a Ariver whose streams make glad the Bcity of God,
The holy Cdwelling places of the Most High.
5  God is Ain the midst of her, she will not be moved;
God will Bhelp her 1when morning dawns.
6 The 1nations Amade an uproar, the kingdoms tottered;
He 2Braised His voice, the earth Cmelted.
7 The Lord of hosts Ais with us;
The God of Jacob is Bour stronghold.
Selah.
 
8  Come, Abehold the works of the Lord,
1Who has wrought Bdesolations in the earth.
9 He Amakes wars to cease to the end of the earth;
He Bbreaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
He Cburns the chariots with fire.
10 “1Cease striving and Aknow that I am God;
I will be Bexalted among the 2nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
Selah.
