- Kapitel 124 -

Our help is in the name of the Lord

1
A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. If the Lord had not bene on our side, (may Israel now say)
2
If the Lord had not bene on our side, when men rose vp against vs,
3
They had then swallowed vs vp quicke, when their wrath was kindled against vs.
4
Then the waters had drowned vs, and the streame had gone ouer our soule:
5
Then had the swelling waters gone ouer our soule.
6
Praysed be the Lord, which hath not giuen vs as a praye vnto their teeth.
7
Our soule is escaped, euen as a bird out of the snare of the foulers: the snare is broken, and we are deliuered.
8
Our helpe is in the Name of the Lord, which hath made heauen and earth.

Our help is in the name of the Lord

1
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
2
if it had not been the LORD 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.
6
Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7
Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
8
Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
