1 G od is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

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.

2 T herefore we won’t be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas;

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

3 t hough its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling. Selah.

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

4 T here is a river, the streams of which make the city of God glad, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.

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

5 G od is within her. She shall not be moved. God will help her at dawn.

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

6 T he nations raged. The kingdoms were moved. He lifted his voice, and the earth melted.

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

7 Y ahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

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

8 C ome, see Yahweh’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth.

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

9 H e makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire.

E 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.

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

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

11 Y ahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

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