1 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
1 {A Song of degrees of David.} If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
1 A Song of Ascents, of David.“(A)Had it not been the Lord who was on our side,”(B)Let Israel now say,
1 A Davidic song of ascents.If the Lord had not been on our side—let Israel say—
1 If the LORD had not been 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;
2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
2 “Had it not been the Lord who was on our sideWhen men rose up against us,
2 if the LORD had not been on our side, when men came against us,
4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;
4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
4 Then the waters would have engulfed us;the torrent would have swept over us;
4 Then the flood waters would have overwhelmed us, the torrent would have flooded over us;
7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
7 Our soul has (H)escaped (I)as a bird out of the (J)snare of the trapper;The snare is broken and we have escaped.
7 We have escaped like a bird from the hunter's trap. The trap has been broken, and we have escaped.
