¹If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

¹{Pesem stopinj, Davidova.} Ako bi nam GOSPOD ne bil na strani, reci zdaj, Izrael,

²If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

²ako bi nam GOSPOD ne bil na strani, ko so vstali ljudje zoper nas:

³Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

³žive bi nas bili tedaj pogoltnili, ko se je vnela njih jeza proti nam.

⁴Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

⁴Tedaj bi nas bile poplavile vode, hudournik bi bil šel čez dušo našo –

⁵Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

⁵tedaj bi bile šle čez dušo našo vode silno prevzetne.

⁶Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

⁶Slavljen GOSPOD, ki nas ni izpostavil za plen njih zobem!

⁷Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

⁷Duša naša je odprhnila kakor ptičica iz ptičarjev zanke: zanka se je pretrgala, in mi smo odprhnili.Pomoč naša je v imenu GOSPODOVEM, ki je naredil nebesa in zemljo.

⁸Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

⁸Pomoč naša je v imenu GOSPODOVEM, ki je naredil nebesa in zemljo.
