| | 1 | If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, Let Israel now say,
| |
| | 2 | If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, When men rose up against us;
| |
| | 3 | Then they would have swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;
| |
| | 4 | Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;
| |
| | 5 | Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
| |
| | 6 | Blessed be Yahweh, Who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
| |
| | 7 | Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
| |
| | 8 | Our help is in the name of Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth. Psalm 125 A Song of Ascents.
