About this chapterA song of confidence in God when everything shakes. He is a refuge and strength and an ever-present help, so the people need not fear even if the earth gives way and mountains fall into the sea. A river brings joy to the city of God, which will not fall because God is in her midst. Nations rage, but he speaks and the earth melts. He stops wars and breaks the bow. The people are told to be still and know he is God, exalted among the nations.

1God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. 2Therefore we will not fear, though the earth is transformed and the mountains are toppled into the depths of the seas, 3though their waters roar and foam and the mountains quake in the surge.Selah 4There is a river whose streams delight the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. 5God is within her; she will not be moved. God will help her when morning dawns. 6Nations rage, kingdoms crumble; the earth melts when He lifts His voice. 7The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.Selah 8Come, see the works of the LORD, who brings devastation upon the earth. 9He makes wars to cease throughout the earth; He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; He burns the shields in the fire. 10“Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted over the earth.” 11The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.Selah
