[1] If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side,    Let Israel now say,
[2] If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side,    When men rose up
against us; [3] Then they would have swallowed us up alive,    When their
wrath was kindled against us; [4] Then the waters would have overwhelmed
us,    The stream would have gone over our soul; [5] Then the proud waters
would have gone over our soul. [6] Blessed be Yahweh,	 Who has not given
us as a prey to their teeth. [7] Our soul has escaped like a bird out of
the fowler`s snare.    The snare is broken, and we have escaped. [8] Our
help is in the name of Yahweh,	  Who made heaven and earth.	  Psalm 125
      A Song of Ascents.
