Psalm 46:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
I
2 God is our refuge and our strength,
an ever-present help in distress.(A)
3 [a]Thus we do not fear, though earth be shaken
and mountains quake to the depths of the sea,
4 Though its waters rage and foam
and mountains totter at its surging.(B)
Selah
