Psalms 124

  1. 1<pb/><e>A song of ascents. Of David.</e> <pb/><t>If the LORD had not been on our side—</t> <t>let Israel say—</t>
  2. 2<t>if the LORD had not been on our side</t> <t>when people attacked us,</t>
  3. 3<t>they would have swallowed us alive</t> <t>when their anger flared against us;</t>
  4. 4<t>the flood would have engulfed us,</t> <t>the torrent would have swept over us,</t>
  5. 5<t>the raging waters</t> <t>would have swept us away. <pb/></t>
  6. 6<t>Praise be to the LORD,</t> <t>who has not let us be torn by their teeth.</t>
  7. 7<t>We have escaped like a bird</t> <t>from the fowler’s snare;</t> <t>the snare has been broken,</t> <t>and we have escaped.</t>
  8. 8<t>Our help is in the name of the LORD,</t> <t>the Maker of heaven and earth.</t>
