¹ ⓐⓑ If it had not been the LORD who was on our side — ⓒlet Israel now say —

² if it had not been the LORD who was on our side when people rose up against us,

³ then they would haveⓓ swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us;

⁴ thenⓔ the flood would haveⓕ swept us away, the torrent would have goneⓖ over us;

⁵ then over us would have gone the raging waters.

⁶ Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth!

⁷ We have escaped like a bird fromⓗ the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped!

⁸ ⓘ Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
