Our help is in the name of the Lord

1
You Israelite people, answer this question: What would have happened to us if Yahweh had not been helping us?
2
When our enemies attacked us, if Yahweh had not been fighting for us,
3
we would have all been killed because they were very angry with us!
4
They would have been like a flood of water sweeping us away; it would have been as though the water had covered us,
5
and we would all have drowned in the flood.
6
But we praise Yahweh because he has not allowed our enemies to destroy us.
7
We have escaped from our enemies as a bird escapes from the trap that hunters have set; it is as though the trap that our enemies set for us was broken and we have escaped from it!
8
Yahweh is the one who helps us; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.
