Psalm 124 A Song of Ascents. Of David.
- If it had not been the LORD who was on our side— let Israel now say—
- if it had not been the LORD who was on our side when people rose up against us,
- then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us;
- then the flood would have swept us away, the torrent would have gone over us;
- then over us would have gone the raging waters.
- Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth!
- We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped!
- Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
(ESV)
