God Is Our Refuge and Strength

For the choir director. Of the sons of Korah. ¹According to Alamoth. A Song.

God is our ^arefuge and strength,²A very ^bpresent help ^cin ³trouble.²Therefore we will ^anot fear, though ^bthe earth should changeAnd though ^cthe mountains shake into the heart of the ¹sea;³Though its ^awaters roar and foam,Though the mountains quake at its lofty pride. ¹ Selah.⁴There is a ^ariver whose streams make glad the ^bcity of God,The holy ^cdwelling places of the Most High.⁵God is ^ain the midst of her, she will not be shaken;God will ^bhelp her ¹when morning dawns.⁶The ¹nations ^aroar, the kingdoms shake;He ^bgives His voice, the earth ^cmelts.⁷Yahweh of hosts ^ais with us;The God of Jacob is ^bour stronghold. Selah.⁸Come, ^abehold the works of Yahweh,¹Who has appointed ^bdesolations in the earth.⁹He ^amakes wars to cease to the end of the earth;He ^bbreaks the bow and cuts up the spear;He ^cburns the chariots with fire.¹⁰“¹Cease striving and ^aknow that I am God;I will be ^bexalted among the ²nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”¹¹Yahweh of hosts is with us;The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah.

O ^aclap your hands, all peoples;^bMake a loud shout to God with the sound of a shout of ¹joy.²For Yahweh Most High is ¹^,^afearsome,A ^bgreat King over all the earth.³He ^asubdues peoples under usAnd nations under our feet.⁴He chooses our ^ainheritance for us,The ^bpride of Jacob whom He loves. ¹ Selah.⁵God has ^aascended ¹with a loud shout,Yahweh, ²with the ^bsound of a trumpet.⁶^aSing praises to God, sing praises;Sing praises to ^bour King, sing praises.⁷For God is the ^aKing of all the earth;Sing praises ^bwith a ¹skillful psalm.⁸God ^areigns over the nations,God ¹sits on ^bHis holy throne.⁹The ^anobles of the peoples have assembled themselves with the ^bpeople of the God of Abraham,For the ^cshields of the earth belong to God;He ¹is ^dhighly exalted.
