If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side—let Israel now declare—

if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us;

if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,

then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;

when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,

then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;

then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,

then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

then the raging waters would have swept us away.

Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

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

Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away.

Our help is in Yahweh’s name, who made heaven and earth.

Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
