1If it had not been the Lord who was on our side[#Ps 94.17; 129.1]
—let Israel now say—
2if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
when our enemies attacked us,
3then they would have swallowed us up alive,[#Ps 56.1; 57.3; Prov 1.12]
when their anger was kindled against us;
4then the flood would have swept us away;[#Ps 69.2]
the torrent would have gone over us;
5then over us would have gone
the raging waters.
6Blessed be the Lord ,[#Ps 27.2]
who has not given us
as prey to their teeth.
7We have escaped like a bird[#Ps 91.3; Prov 6.5]
from the snare of the hunters;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped.
8Our help is in the name of the Lord ,[#Gen 1.1; Ps 121.2]
who made heaven and earth.
