1 God is our shelter and strength,always ready to help in times of trouble.
2 So we will not be afraid, even if the earth is shakenand mountains fall into the ocean depths;
3 even if the seas roar and rage,and the hills are shaken by the violence.
4 There is a river that brings joy to the city of God,to the sacred house of the Most High.
5 God is in that city, and it will never be destroyed;at early dawn he will come to its aid.
6 Nations are terrified, kingdoms are shaken;God thunders, and the earth dissolves.
7 The Lord Almighty is with us;the God of Jacob is our refuge.
8 Come and see what the Lord has done.See what amazing things he has done on earth.
9 He stops wars all over the world;he breaks bows, destroys spears,and sets shields on fire.
10 “Stop fighting,” he says, “and know that I am God,supreme among the nations,supreme over the world.”
11 The Lord Almighty is with us;the God of Jacob is our refuge.
