2 Therefore we will not be frightened when the earth roars, when the mountains shake in the depths of the seas, Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 when its waters roar and rage, when the mountains tremble despite their pride. Interlude though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.
4 Look! There is a river whose streams make the city of God rejoice, even the Holy Place of the Most High. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 Since God is in her midst, she will not be shaken. God will help her at the break of dawn. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns. God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.

9 He causes wars to cease all over the earth, he causes the bow to break, the spear to snap, the chariots to ignite and burn. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire. He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire.
10 Be in awe and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted throughout the earth. “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
11 The LORD of the heavenly armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Interlude The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
