A Song of Ascents. By David.
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.
6 Blessed be Yahweh,
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 Yahweh’s name,
who made heaven and earth.

称颂 神的帮助与保护
大卫朝圣之歌原文作"往上行之歌"。 1 愿以色列人说：
如果不是耶和华帮助我们，本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题
2 如果不是耶和华帮助我们；
那么，人起来攻击我们，
3 向我们发怒的时候，
就把我们活活吞下去了。
4 那时，洪水漫过我们，
急流淹没我们；
5 汹涌的洪水把我们淹没。
6 耶和华是应当称颂的，
他没有容让敌人把我们当作猎物撕裂。
7 我们像雀鸟从捕鸟的人的网罗里逃脱；
网罗破裂，我们就逃脱了。
8 我们的帮助在于耶和华的名，
他是造天地的主。
