Ps 124
1
A Song of Ascents; of David. 'If it had not been the LORD who was for us', let Israel
now say;
2
'If it had not been the LORD who was for us, when men rose up against us,
3
Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
4
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;
5
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.'
6
Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7
Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken,
and we are escaped.
8
Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
