God Is Our Fortress

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

1  God is our crefuge and strength,

a very dpresent2 help in etrouble.

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

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

3  though hits waters roar and foam,

though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah

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

the holy khabitation of the Most High.

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

God will help her when morning dawns.

6  mThe nations rage, the kingdoms totter;

he nutters his voice, the earth omelts.

7  pThe Lord of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

8  qCome, behold the works of the Lord,

how he has brought desolations on the earth.

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

he sbreaks the bow and shatters the spear;

the burns the chariots with fire.

10  u“Be still, and know that I am God.

vI will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!”

11  pThe Lord of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
