So we ain’t tripping, even if the world turns upside down and mountains get tossed into the sea;
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; {midst...: Heb. heart of the seas}
Even if the waters are rowdy and the mountains be shook. Selah.
{Though} the waters thereof roar {and} be troubled, {though} the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

God’s in the scene; she’s not moving: God’s gonna back her up, no cap.
God {is} in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, {and that} right early. {and...: Heb. when the morning appeareth}

Yo, peep what the Lord’s done, the wild moves He’s made on earth.
Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
Just chill and know I’m God: I’ll be raised high among the nations, I’ll be iconic on the earth.
Be still, and know that I {am} God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
The Lord of hosts is rolling with us; the God of Jacob is our safe space. Selah.
The LORD of hosts {is} with us; the God of Jacob {is} our refuge. Selah.
