   1   If the Lord had not been on our side,
    Israel may now say,
   2   if the Lord had not been on our side
    when they assailed us,
   3   they would have swallowed us alive
    when their anger was roused against us.
   4   The waters would have carried us away
    and the torrent swept over us;
   5   over us would have swept
    the seething waters.
   6   Blessed be the Lord, who did not leave us
    to be the prey between their teeth.
   7   We have escaped like a bird
    from the fowler's trap;
    the trap broke, and so we escaped.
   8   Our help is in the name of the Lord,
    maker of heaven and earth.
