1 If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,
Let Israel now say,
|
|
2 If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,
When men rose up against us;
|
|
3 Then they had swallowed us up alive,
When their wrath was kindled against us:
|
|
4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us,
The stream had gone over our soul;
|
|
5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
|
|
6 Blessed be Jehovah,
Who hath 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 Jehovah,
Who made heaven and earth. |
