5 Because God is there, the city will not fall. God will help it at the beginning of the day.
6 Nations are in disorder. Kingdoms fall. God speaks, and the people of the earth melt in fear.
7 The Lord who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us. Selah
8 Come and see what the Lord has done. See the places he has destroyed on the earth.
9 He makes wars stop from one end of the earth to the other. He breaks every bow. He snaps every spear. He burns every shield with fire.
10 He says, "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be honored among the nations. I will be honored in the earth."
