A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save for Jehovah -- who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say), |
| 2. | Save for Jehovah -- who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us, |
| 3. | Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us, |
| 4. | Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul, |
| 5. | Then passed over our soul had the proud waters. |
| 6. | Blessed is Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth. |
| 7. | Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped. |
| 8. | Our help is in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth! |
