1 The song of degrees of David. Israel say now, No but for the Lord was in us; (A song by David for steps of ascending. Let Israel say now, If the Lord was not with us or If the Lord had not been for us,)
2 no but for the Lord was in us. When men rose up against us; (yea, if the Lord was not with us or if the Lord had not been for us; then when men rose up against us,)
3 in hap they had swallowed us quick. When the strong vengeance of them was wroth against us; (they would have swallowed us up alive. Yea, when their fury raged against us;)
