A Song of Ascents. By David.

1 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 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 has escaped like a bird out of the fowler`s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of The LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
