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.
