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 watersWould 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.
