1 If the LORDE had not bene of oure syde (now maye Israel saye) Yf the LORDE had not bene of oure syde, whe me rose vp agaynst vs:

2 They had swalowed vs vp quycke, when they were so wrothfully displeased at vs.

3 Yee the waters had drowned vs, the streame had gone ouer oure soule.

4 The depe waters of the proude had gone eue vnto oure soule.

5 But praysed be ye LORDE, which hath not geuen vs ouer for a pray vnto their teth.

6 Oure soule is escaped, euen as a byrde out of the snare of ye fouler:

7 ye snare is broke, and we are delyuered.

8 Oure helpe stodeth in the name of the LORDE, which hath made heauen and earth.
