1
If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, Let Israel now say,
2
If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, When men rose up against us;
3
Then they would have swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;
4
Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;
5
Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
