4 There is a River, whose pure streams God's [blessed] City do make glad; The holy place, where the most high His dwelling [hath and] long hath had.
5 The Lord is in the midst of her, Nothing shall her [shake and] remove: The Lord himself right early will [To] her [a] faithful helper prove.
6 The heathens raged tumultuously, The [neighbour] Kingdoms moved were; He uttered his powerful voice, The earth did melt [as if] for fear.
6 The heathens rag'd tumultuously, The [neighbour] Kingdoms moved were; He uttered his powerful voice, The earth did melt [as if] for fear.
7 The Lord himself doth take our part, Who doth all hosts [and powers] command; For our sure refuge Jacob's God, As our high place doth [alway] stand.
