God the refuge of his people. (To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.)

¹⁾God is our refuge and strength, a present help in trouble.

²⁾Therefore we will not fear, though the earth shall be removed, and though the mountains shall be carried into the midst of the sea;

³⁾And the waters thereof roar, being troubled, and the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.

⁴⁾Yet there shall be a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.

⁵⁾For Zion shall come, and God shall be in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God shall help her right early.

⁶⁾The heathen shall be enraged, and their kingdoms shall be moved, and the Lord shall utter his voice, and the earth shall be melted.

⁷⁾The Lord of hosts who shall be with us, the God of Jacob our refuge. Selah.

⁸⁾Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he shall make in the earth in the latter days.

⁹⁾He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire, and saith unto the nations,

¹⁰⁾Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

¹¹⁾The Lord of hosts shall be with us, the God of Jacob our refuge. Selah.
