There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 46 of Psalms. Psalm 46 proclaims that God is a refuge amid natural catastrophes and political threats. The language of raging waters, shaking mountains, and wars creates a setting in which the most stable structures appear to disappear. Yet the city of God remains because the Lord is in its midst. The command to be still and recognize God summarizes the theme: divine sovereignty remains even when circumstances are chaotic.

wenngleich das Meer wütete und wallte und von seinem Ungestüm die Berge einfielen. (Sela.)
Del río sus conductos alegrarán la ciudad de Dios, El santuario de las tiendas del Altísimo.
Hay un río cuyas corrientes alegran la ciudad de Dios, la santa morada del Altísimo.
Il est un fleuve dont les courants réjouissent la cité de Dieu, Le sanctuaire des demeures du Très-Haut.
Il fiume, i ruscelli di Dio rallegreranno la sua Città. Il luogo santo degli abitacoli dell’Altissimo.
Há um rio cujas correntes alegram a cidade de Deus, o santuário das moradas do Altíssimo.
有一道河,這河的分汊使上帝的城歡喜, 這城就是至高者居住的聖所。
