1 song [the] step to/for David unless LORD which/that to be to/for us to say please Israel

A Song of Ascents; of David. 'If it had not been the LORD who was for us', let Israel now say;

2 unless LORD which/that to be to/for us in/on/with to arise: attack upon us man

'If it had not been the LORD who was for us, when men rose up against us,

3 in that case alive to swallow up us in/on/with to be incensed face: anger their in/on/with us

Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;

4 in that case [the] water to overflow us torrent: river [to] to pass upon soul: myself our

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;

5 in that case to pass upon soul: myself our [the] water [the] raging

Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.'

6 to bless LORD which/that not to give: give us prey to/for tooth their

Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 soul: myself our like/as bird to escape from snare to snare [the] snare to break and we to escape

Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 helper our in/on/with name LORD to make heaven and land: country/planet

Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
