¹ A Song of Ascents, of David. Except that it was Jehovah who was for us, O may Israel say;² except that it was Jehovah who was for us when men rose up against us,³ then they would have swallowed us alive, when their anger glowed against us.⁴ Then the waters would have flowed over us; the torrent would have covered our soul;⁵ then the raging waters would have passed over our soul.

⁶ Blessed be Jehovah, who did not give us as a prey to their teeth.⁷ Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowlers' snare; the snare is broken, and we have escaped.⁸ Our help is in the name of Jehovah, the Maker of the heavens and earth.
