^1. A Song of Ascents. Of David. 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 anger was kindled against us;

^4. then the flood would have swept us away, the torrent would have gone over us;

^5. then over us would have gone the raging waters.

^6. Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth!

^7. We have escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped!

^8. Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
