God the Refuge of His People and Conqueror of the Nations
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song ⚓for Alamoth.
1God is our ⚓refuge and strength,
⚓A very present help in trouble.
2Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3⚓Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling.
Selah
4There is a ⚓river whose streams shall make glad the ⚓city of God,
The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
5God is⚓in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;
God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.
6⚓The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;
He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
7The ⚓Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah
8Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has made desolations in the earth.
9⚓He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
⚓He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
⚓He burns the chariot in the fire.
10Be still, and know that I am God;
⚓I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!
11The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah
