God Is Our Fortress

To the choirmaster. Of athe Sons of Korah. According to bAlamoth.1 A Song.

¹God is our crefuge and strength,

a very dpresent2 help in etrouble.

²Therefore we will not fear fthough the earth gives way,

though the mountains be moved into gthe heart of the sea,

³though hits waters roar and foam,

though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah

⁴There is ia river whose streams make glad jthe city of God,

the holy khabitation of the Most High.

⁵lGod is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;

God will help her when morning dawns.

⁶mThe nations rage, the kingdoms totter;

he nutters his voice, the earth omelts.

⁷pThe Lord of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

⁸qCome, behold the works of the Lord,

how he has brought desolations on the earth.

⁹rHe makes wars cease to the end of the earth;

he sbreaks the bow and shatters the spear;

the burns the chariots with fire.

¹⁰u“Be still, and know that I am God.

vI will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!”

¹¹pThe Lord of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
