When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants, it is I who keep steady its pillars. Selah

地和其上的居民都消化了；我曾立了地的柱子。细拉

地和其上的居民都熔化了；我亲自坚立地的柱子。（细拉）

地和其上的居民都熔化了；我亲自坚立地的柱子。（细拉）

大地震动，世人战抖的时候，是我使地的根基稳固。（细拉）

地和地上的居民都因惧怕而融化，我却使大地的柱子坚立。（细拉）

大地和其上所有的居民都消融时，是我稳固了大地的柱子。细拉

地和其上的居民都消化了；我曾立了地的柱子。（細拉）

地和其上的居民都熔化了；我親自堅立地的柱子。（細拉）

地和其上的居民都熔化了；我親自堅立地的柱子。（細拉）

大地震動，世人戰抖的時候，是我使地的根基穩固。（細拉）

地和地上的居民都因懼怕而融化，我卻使大地的柱子堅立。（細拉）

地和地上的居民都震撼崩潰，而我呢，我卻使地的柱子穩定。（細拉）

大地和其上所有的居民都消融時，是我穩固了大地的柱子。細拉

地與居民潰亂、其柱乃我所立兮、

斯土喪敗、民人離散、惟余為國之棟兮、

大地以及居民、盡皆消滅、惟我必堅定其柱、細拉、

主曰時熟。將行讞鞫。彰我正義。賞善罰惡。

When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm.

When the earth and all its people tremble, I keep everything from falling to pieces.

When the earth quakes and its people live in turmoil, I am the one who keeps its foundations firm. Interlude

When the earth and all its inhabitants shake, I am the one who steadies its pillars. Selah

The earth and all who inhabit it are unsteady; It is I who have firmly set its pillars. Selah

The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved; I set up its pillars firmly. Selah

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have set up the pillars of it.[ Selah

When the earth and all its inhabitants shake, I am the One who steadies its pillars. Selah

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

When the earth and all its inhabitants dissolve in fear, I make its pillars secure.”( Selah)

The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.

He raises up the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from the ash heap to make them sit with princes and inherit a seat of honor. For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and on them he has set the world.

The earth is utterly broken, the earth is split apart, the earth is violently shaken.

And the women sang to one another as they celebrated,“ Saul has struck down his thousands, and David his ten thousands.”

He forsook his dwelling at Shiloh, the tent where he dwelt among mankind,and delivered his power to captivity, his glory to the hand of the foe.He gave his people over to the sword and vented his wrath on his heritage.Fire devoured their young men, and their young women had no marriage song.Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows made no lamentation.Then the Lord awoke as from sleep, like a strong man shouting because of wine.And he put his adversaries to rout; he put them to everlasting shame.He rejected the tent of Joseph; he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,but he chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion, which he loves.He built his sanctuary like the high heavens, like the earth, which he has founded forever.He chose David his servant and took him from the sheepfolds;from following the nursing ewes he brought him to shepherd Jacob his people, Israel his inheritance.With upright heart he shepherded them and guided them with his skillful hand.

O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses; you have been angry; oh, restore us.You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open; repair its breaches, for it totters.You have made your people see hard things; you have given us wine to drink that made us stagger.

In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. And the Lord said to you,‘ You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over Israel.’”

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

Behold, the Lord will empty the earth and make it desolate, and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants.And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the slave, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor.The earth shall be utterly empty and utterly plundered; for the Lord has spoken this word.The earth mourns and withers; the world languishes and withers; the highest people of the earth languish.The earth lies defiled under its inhabitants; for they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are scorched, and few men are left.The wine mourns, the vine languishes, all the merry-hearted sigh.The mirth of the tambourines is stilled, the noise of the jubilant has ceased, the mirth of the lyre is stilled.No more do they drink wine with singing; strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.The wasted city is broken down; every house is shut up so that none can enter.There is an outcry in the streets for lack of wine; all joy has grown dark; the gladness of the earth is banished.Desolation is left in the city; the gates are battered into ruins.

Thus says the Lord:“ In a time of favor I have answered you; in a day of salvation I have helped you; I will keep you and give you as a covenant to the people, to establish the land, to apportion the desolate heritages,

Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the Lord will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord is fighting the battles of the Lord, and evil shall not be found in you so long as you live.

Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa.And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was badly wounded by the archers.Then Saul said to his armor-bearer,“ Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword and fell upon it.And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him.Thus Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor-bearer, and all his men, on the same day together.And when the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley and those beyond the Jordan saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled. And the Philistines came and lived in them.
