Bible

1 For the choir director; a song by the descendants of Korah; according to alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. 2 That is why we are not afraid even when the earth quakes or the mountains topple into the depths of the sea. 3 Water roars and foams, and mountains shake at the surging waves. Selah 4 There is a river whose streams bring joy to the city of God, the holy place where the Most High lives. 5 God is in that city. It cannot fall. God will help it at the break of dawn. 6 Nations are in turmoil, and kingdoms topple. The earth melts at the sound of {God's} voice. 7 The Lord of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah 8 Come, see the works of the Lord, the devastation he has brought to the earth. 9 He puts an end to wars all over the earth. He breaks an archer's bow. He cuts spears in two. He burns chariots. 10 Let go {of your concerns}! Then you will know that I am God. I rule the nations. I rule the earth. 11 The Lord of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
