| 1. | {A Song of degrees. Of David.} If it had not been Jehovah who was for us -- oh let Israel say -- |
| 2. | If it had not been Jehovah who was for us, when men rose up against us, |
| 3. | Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us; |
| 4. | Then the waters had overwhelmed us, a torrent had gone over our soul; |
| 5. | Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. |
| 6. | Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not up 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 have escaped. |
| 8. | Our help is in the name of Jehovah, the maker of heavens and earth. |
