PSALM 124 (NIV)
A song of ascents. Of David.
A song of ascents. Of David.
- If the Lord had not been on our side - let Israel say -
- if the Lord had not been on our side when men attacked us,
- when their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive;
- the flood would have swept over us,
- the raging waters would have swept us away.
- Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
- We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.
- Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
