1. A song of Ascents. Of David. "If it had not been the Lord who was on our side," Let Israel now say-- | |
2. "If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, When men rose up against us, | |
3. Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us; | |
4. Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul; | |
5. Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul." | |
6. Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth. | |
7. Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; The snare is broken, and we have escaped. | |
8. Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth. |
