The Lord is a warrior;
the Lord is His Name.
He rises against the enemy
who defies Him.
The nations conspire against Him,
but their counsel is vain;
He laughs at them
and scatters their plans.
The enemy comes with violence and pride,
but the Lord comes with power and truth;
no fortress can stand
against Him.
He breaks the spear and the sword,
He brings the battle to rest;
for the victory belongs to Him.
The proud are humbled,
the oppressor silenced;
the Lord does not allow
wickedness to reign.
The enemy is destroyed
by his own evil;
his power vanishes
like smoke in the wind.
The Lord is a refuge for His people,
a strong fortress in times of trouble;
no enemy can snatch them
out of His hand.
Be still and know
that I am God, says the Lord;
I will be exalted
over all the earth.
