A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save for Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

2

Save for Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

3

Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

4

Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

5

Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

6

Blessed is Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

7

Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

8

Our help is in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!

Psalms 124of 150
