Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:
1Canticum graduum. [Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël,
2If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us,
2nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis: cum exsurgerent homines in nos,
3Perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,
3forte vivos deglutissent nos; cum irasceretur furor eorum in nos,
4Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.
4forsitan aqua absorbuisset nos;
5Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.
5torrentem pertransivit anima nostra; forsitan pertransisset anima nostra aquam intolerabilem.
6Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.
6Benedictus Dominus, qui non dedit nos in captionem dentibus eorum.
7Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the followers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.
7Anima nostra sicut passer erepta est de laqueo venantium; laqueus contritus est, et nos liberati sumus.
8Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
8Adjutorium nostrum in nomine Domini, qui fecit cælum et terram.]
