Christian Standard Bible

1To the Chief Musician. [i]A Psalm[/i] of the sons of Korah. A Song for Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

1God is our refuge and strength, a helper who is always found in times of trouble.

2Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

2Therefore we will not be afraid, though the earth trembles and the mountains topple into the depths of the seas,

3Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

3though its water roars and foams and the mountains quake with its turmoil. Selah

4There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.

4There is a river--its streams delight the city of God, the holy dwelling place of the Most High.

5God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.

5God is within her; she will not be toppled. God will help her when the morning dawns.

6The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

6Nations rage, kingdoms topple; the earth melts when he lifts his voice.

7The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

7The LORD of Armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah

8Come, behold the works of the LORD, Who has made desolations in the earth.

8Come, see the works of the LORD, who brings devastation on the earth.

9He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.

9He makes wars cease throughout the earth. He shatters bows and cuts spears to pieces; he sets wagons ablaze.

10Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

10"Stop your fighting, and know that I am God, exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth."

11The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

11The LORD of Armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
