American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
A Song of Ascents; of David.If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,Let Israel now say,
If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,When men rose up against us;
Then they had swallowed us up alive,When their wrath was kindled against us;
Then the waters had overwhelmed us,The stream had gone over our soul;
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
A Song of Ascents.Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes,O thou that sittest in the heavens.
Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their master,As the eyes of a maid unto the hand of her mistress;So our eyes look unto Jehovah our God,Until he have mercy upon us.
Have mercy upon us, O Jehovah, have mercy upon us;For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
Our soul is exceedingly filledWith the scoffing of those that are at ease,And with the contempt of the proud.
A Song of Ascents; of David.If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,Let Israel now say,
If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side,When men rose up against us;
Then they had swallowed us up alive,When their wrath was kindled against us;
Then the waters had overwhelmed us,The stream had gone over our soul;
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
