To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.
1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
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.
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 is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
1 To him that excelleth upon Alamoth a song committed to the sonnes of Korah. God is our hope and strength, and helpe in troubles, ready to be found. 2 Therefore will not we feare, though the earth be moued, and though the mountaines fall into the middes of the sea. 3 Though the waters thereof rage and be troubled, and the mountaines shake at the surges of the same. Selah, 4 Yet there is a Riuer, whose streames shall make glad the citie of God: euen the Sanctuarie of the Tabernacles of the most High. 5 God is in the middes of it: therefore shall it not be moued: God shall helpe it very earely. 6 When the nations raged, and the kingdomes were moued, God thundred, and the earth melted. 7 The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. Selah. 8 Come, and behold the workes of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth. 9 He maketh warres to cease vnto the endes of the world: he breaketh the bowe and cutteth the speare, and burneth the chariots with fire. 10 Be still and knowe that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, and I wil be exalted in the earth. 11 The Lord of hostes is with vs: the God of Iaakob is our refuge. Selah.
