For the conductor, a song of the sons of Korah, on alamoth.

God is for us a shelter and a strength, a help in troubles; He is very accessible.

Therefore we will not fear when the earth changes and when mountains totter into the heart of seas.

His waters shall stir and be muddied; mountains shall quake from His pride forever.

But as for the river-its rivulets shall cause the city of God, the holy place of the dwellings of the Most High, to rejoice.

God is in its midst that it should not totter; God shall help it as morning approaches.

Nations have stirred, kingdoms have tottered; He let out His voice, the earth shall melt.

The Lord of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress forever.

Go and see the works of the Lord, that He has wrought devastation in the earth.

He puts a stop to wars until the end of the earth; He will break the bow and cut the spear [to pieces]; wagons He will burn with fire.

Desist, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted upon the earth.

The Lord of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress forever.
