A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem. A psalm of David.
1 What if theLordhad not been on our side?
Let all Israel repeat:
2 What if theLordhad not been on our side
when people attacked us?
3 They would have swallowed us alive
in their burning anger.
4 The waters would have engulfed us;
a torrent would have overwhelmed us.
5 Yes, the raging waters of their fury
would have overwhelmed our very lives.
6 Praise theLord,
who did not let their teeth tear us apart!
7 We escaped like a bird from a hunter’s trap.
The trap is broken, and we are free!
8 Our help is from theLord,
who made heaven and earth.
