1 "aHad it not been the Lord who was on our side," bLet Israel now say, 2 "Had it not been the Lord who was on our side When men rose up against us, 3 Then they would have aswallowed us alive, When their banger was kindled against us; 4 Then the awaters would have engulfed us, The stream would have swept over our soul; 5 Then the araging waters would have swept over our soul." 6 Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us to be atorn by their teeth. 7 Our soul has aescaped bas a bird out of the csnare of the trapper; The snare is broken and we have escaped. 8 Our ahelp is in the name of the Lord, Who bmade heaven and earth.
