Psalm
1 Song of ascensions to David. Unless Jehovah was to us, now shall Israel say,
2 Unless Jehovah was to us in the rising up of man against us,
3 Then they swallowed us down living, in the kindling of their anger against us:
4 Then the waters overflowed us, the torrent passed over our soul:
5 Then the swelling waters passed over our soul.
6 Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not a prey to their teeth.
7 Our soul as a sparrow was delivered from the snare of the fowlers: the snare was broken and we were delivered.
8 Our help is in the name of Jehovah.; he made the heavens and the earth.
