^1aTo the choirmaster, for the sons of Korah concerning maidens.↑

A Song.

^1bGod is our refuge and strength

– A help in adversities.

He is readily found.

²That is why we will not fear

When the earth undergoes change,

Or the mountains tumble into the heart of the seas.

³His waters roar and swell;

Mountains shake at his grandeur.

Selah.

⁴A river and its streams give joy to the City of God

– To the holy dwelling places of the Most High.

⁵God is at its centre;

It will not be shaken.

God will help it

At the approach of the morning.

⁶The Gentiles are in a commotion,

And kingdoms topple.

When he gives utterance with his voice,

The earth melts.

⁷The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is a high stronghold to us.

Selah.

⁸Come and see the works of the Lord,

Who has brought about desolations on the earth.

⁹He stops wars up to the end of the earth,

He breaks the bow and snaps the spear;

He burns chariots in fire.

¹⁰Be still, and know that I am God.

I will be exalted among the Gentiles;

I will be exalted on the earth.

¹¹The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is a high stronghold to us.

Selah.
