124:1 [A song of ascents. Of David.] If the Lord had not been on our side - let Israel say -
124:2 if the Lord had not been on our side when people attacked us,
124:3 they would have swallowed us alive when their anger flared against us;
124:4 the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us,
124:5 the raging waters would have swept us away.
124:6 Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
124:7 We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.
124:8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
