1A Song of Ascents. By David. If 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.

✎ Edit Point, Explanation & Score
PAGE
Point Text
Easy-edit plain text. Keep the short point title followed by a colon, then the explanation.
Blank lines create additional paragraphs. This is the same copy/paste shape used by
Ask AI → Revise Content; Save Changes preserves the point's normal
<strong>/<p> structure automatically.
Advanced HTML source (rarely needed)
Direct inner HTML of the <li>. Use this only for a custom/complex point.
Changes are stored as an override — original post content is never modified.

AI Explanation Answer
REDUNDANCY
Redundancy Group
Loading redundancy status...
This is a durable manual exemption. The scorer's original group is kept underneath,
so unchecking this box later restores normal redundancy handling. If a two-point
group is split, both insights become standalone.
SCORE
Base Point Score
/ 60
Loading score...
This is the base score before administrator boost and user-upvote points.
Final score = Base + Admin + Users. Rated = Final score × 1.8.
Changing an AI-scored point creates a manual override while preserving its AI rubric data underneath.
AI THUMBS
Opus 5 Thumb Policy
Loading AI-thumb policy...
Inherit uses manual-wins: protected chapter tiers, a nonzero manual boost, or administrator Neutral/Down receive zero Opus 5 thumbs. Administrator Up remains additive.
Auto opts this point into the live curve despite those safeguards. Off suppresses only the Opus 5 contribution. Custom sets this point's fixed Opus 5 thumb units and survives rescoring; it does not rewrite the stored Opus 5 score.
Add a New Insight Point
The colon is added automatically.
Plain text is safest. Blank lines become separate paragraphs.
Enter a score. Administrator boosts and user upvotes will be added on top.
