^{1 2}God is our refuge and stronghold, a help in trouble, very near. ³Therefore we are not afraid though the earth reels, though mountains topple into the sea— ⁴its waters rage and foam; in its swell mountains quake. Selah. ⁵There is a river whose streams gladden God's city, the holy dwelling‐place of the Most High. ⁶God is in its midst, it will not be toppled; by daybreak God will come to its aid. ⁷Nations rage, kingdoms topple; at the sound of His thunder the earth dissolves. ⁸The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our haven. Selah. ⁹Come and see what the LORD has done, how He has wrought desolation on the earth. ¹⁰He puts a stop to wars throughout the earth, breaking the bow, snapping the spear, consigning wagons to the flames. ¹¹“Desist! Realize that I am God! I dominate the nations; I dominate the earth.” ¹²The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our haven. Selah.
