¹For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the sons of Korah; set to Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

¹¶ Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.

²Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, And though the mountains be shaken into the heart of the seas;

²Na reira kore ake to tatou wehi, ahakoa nekehia te whenua, ahakoa kahakina nga maunga ki waenga moana;

³Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, Though the mountains tremble with the swelling thereof. Selah

³Ahakoa rara, taupatupatu noa ona wai, ahakoa wiri nga maunga i tona huamo. (Hera.

⁴There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.

⁴He awa tena ko ona manga hei whakahari i te pa o te Atua, i te wahi tapu o nga tapenakara o te Runga Rawa.

⁵God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God will help her, and that right early.

⁵Kei waenganui ona te Atua, e kore ia e whakakorikoria: ma te Atua ia e awhina i te putanga ano o te ata.

⁶The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved: He uttered his voice, the earth melted.

⁶¶ I nana nga tauiwi, i whakakorikoria nga rangatiratanga; puaki ana tona reo, rewa ana te whenua.

⁷Jehovah of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

⁷Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano, ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera.

⁸Come, behold the works of Jehovah, What desolations he hath made in the earth.

⁸Haere mai, tirohia nga mahi a Ihowa, nga whakangaromanga i whakaputaina e ia ki te whenua.

⁹He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariots in the fire.

⁹E whakamutua ana e ia nga whainga a te pito ra ano o te whenua: whati ana i a ia te kopere, poro pu te tao, tahuna ake e ia te hariata ki te kapura.

¹⁰Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

¹⁰Kia ata noho, a kia matau ko ahau te Atua; e whakanuia ahau i waenganui i nga tauiwi, e whakanuia ahau i te whenua.

¹¹Jehovah of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
