King James New American Standard Bible
  • 1 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
  • 2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
  • 3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
  • 4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
  • 5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
  • 6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
  • 7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
  • 8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
  • 1 “Had it not been the LORD who was on our side,” Let 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 swallowed us alive, When their anger was kindled against us;
  • 4 Then the waters would have engulfed us, The stream would have swept over our soul;
  • 5 Then the raging waters would have swept over our soul.”
  • 6 Blessed be the LORD, Who has not given us to be torn by their teeth.
  • 7 Our soul has escaped as a bird out of the snare of the trapper; The snare is broken and we have escaped.
  • 8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
