1. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel 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 up 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 proud waters would have gone over our soul.
6. Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
8. Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
