Psalms 124:1-5 ▼

1 A Song of Ascents. Of David. “Had it not been Yahweh who was on our side,” Let Israel now say,

2 “Had it not been Yahweh who was on our side When men 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 flowed over us, The stream would have swept over our soul;

5 Then the raging waters would have swept over our soul.”
