| 2 | So we will not fear when earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea. | 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 | Let the oceans roar and foam. Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge! 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 | A river brings joy to the city of our God, the sacred home 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 | God dwells in that city; it cannot be destroyed. From the very break of day, God will protect it. | 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. | |
| 6 | The nations are in chaos, and their kingdoms crumble! God’s voice thunders, and the earth melts! | The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he utters his voice, the earth melts. | Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. | |

| 9 | He causes wars to end throughout the earth. He breaks the bow and snaps the spear; he burns the shields with fire. | 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. | |

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.” | |
