Our help is in the name of the Lord

1
If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now declare—
2
if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,
3
when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,
4
then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,
5
then the raging waters would have swept us away.
6
Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
7
We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away.
8
Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
