Psalm 124
1 "Had it not been the LORD who was on our side," Let Israel say,
2 "Had it not been the LORD who was on our side When people rose up against us,
3 Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their anger was kindled against us;
4 Then the waters would have flooded over us, The stream would have swept over our souls;
5 Then the raging waters would have swept over our souls."
6 Blessed be the LORD, Who has not given us to be torn by their teeth.
7 Our souls have escaped like a bird from the trapper's snare; The snare is broken and we have escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
