2. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3. Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4. Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5. Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6. Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
