King James Version
1A Song of degrees of David. If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, now may Israel say; 2If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us: 3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: 4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: 5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. 6Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. 7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. 8Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Berean Standard Bible
1A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now declare— 2if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us, 3when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive, 4then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us, 5then the raging waters would have swept us away. 6Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth. 7We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away. 8Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
