Lutherbibel Bolsinger (1545)
1Ein Lied Davids im hohern Chor. Wo der HERR nicht bei uns ware, so sage Israel,
2wo der HERR nicht bei uns ware, wenn die Menschen sich wider uns setzen,
3so verschlangen sie uns lebendig, wenn ihr Zorn fiber uns ergrimmete,
4so ersaufte uns Wasser, Strome gingen fiber unsere Seele;
5es gingen Wasser allzu hoch fiber unsere Seele.
6Gelobet sei der HERR, daß er uns nicht gibt zum Raube in ihre Zahne!
7Unsere Seele ist entronnen wie ein Vogel dem Stricke des Voglers. Der Strick ist zerrissen, und wir sind los.
8Unsere Hilfe stehet im Namen des HERRN, der Himmel und Erde gemacht hat.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Cántico gradual: de David. A NO haber estado Jehová por nosotros, diga ahora Israel;
2A no haber estado Jehová por nosotros, cuando se levantaron contra nosotros los hombres,
3Vivos nos habrían entonces tragado, cuando se encendió su furor en nosotros.
4Entonces nos habrían inundado las aguas; sobre nuestra alma hubiera pasado el torrente:
5Hubieran entonces pasado sobre nuestra alma las aguas soberbias.
6Bendito Jehová, que no nos dió por presa á sus dientes.
7Nuestra alma escapó cual ave del lazo de los cazadores: quebróse el lazo, y escapamos nosotros.
8Nuestro socorro es en el nombre de Jehová, que hizo el cielo y la tierra.
King James Version
1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
2If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
8Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
World English Bible
1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
2if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us,
3then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,
4then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.
5Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
6Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
8Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
