上帝与我们同在

可拉后裔的诗,交给乐长,用女高音唱。

46 上帝是我们的避难所,
是我们的力量,
是我们患难中随时的帮助。
因此,任大地震动,
群山沉入深海;
任海涛汹涌澎湃,
群山摇撼颤抖,
我们也不惧怕。(细拉)

有一条河给上帝的城——至高者的圣所带来喜乐。
上帝住在城里,
城必屹立不倒。
天一亮,上帝必帮助这城。
列邦动荡,列国倾覆。
上帝的声音使大地熔化。
万军之耶和华与我们同在,
雅各的上帝是我们的堡垒。(细拉)

来看耶和华的作为吧!
祂使大地荒凉。
祂平息天下的战争,
祂断弓、折枪、烧毁盾牌。
10 祂说:“要安静,
要知道我是上帝,
我必在列国受尊崇,
在普世受尊崇。”
11 万军之耶和华与我们同在,
雅各的上帝是我们的堡垒。

God Is Our Refuge and Strength

For the choir director. Of the sons of Korah. [a]According to Alamoth. A Song.

46 God is our (A)refuge and strength,
[b]A very (B)present help (C)in [c]trouble.
Therefore we will (D)not fear, though (E)the earth should change
And though (F)the mountains shake into the heart of the [d]sea;
Though its (G)waters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its lofty pride. [e]Selah.

There is a (H)river whose streams make glad the (I)city of God,
The holy (J)dwelling places of the Most High.
God is (K)in the midst of her, she will not be shaken;
God will (L)help her [f]when morning dawns.
The [g]nations (M)roar, the kingdoms shake;
He (N)gives His voice, the earth (O)melts.
Yahweh of hosts (P)is with us;
The God of Jacob is (Q)our stronghold. Selah.

Come, (R)behold the works of Yahweh,
[h]Who has appointed (S)desolations in the earth.
He (T)makes wars to cease to the end of the earth;
He (U)breaks the bow and cuts up the spear;
He (V)burns the chariots with fire.
10 [i]Cease striving and (W)know that I am God;
I will be (X)exalted among the [j]nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
11 Yahweh of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah.
