1   
God is our shelter and our refuge,
a timely help in trouble;
2   so we are not afraid when the earth heaves
  and the mountains are hurled into the sea,
   3   when its waters seethe in tumult
  and the mountains quake before his majesty.
4   There is a river whose streams gladden the city of God, note
  which the Most High has made his holy dwelling; note
   5   God is in that city; she will not be overthrown,
  and he will help her at the break of day.
6   Nations are in tumult, kingdoms hurled down;
  when he thunders, the earth surges like the sea.
   7   The Lord of Hosts is with us,
  the God of Jacob our high stronghold.


   8   Come and see what the Lord has done,
  the devastation he has brought upon earth,
   9   from end to end of the earth he stamps out war:
he breaks the bow, he snaps the spear
  and burns the shield in the fire.


10   Let be then: learn that I am God,
high over the nations, high above earth.
   11   The Lord of Hosts is with us,
  the God of Jacob our high stronghold.
