Psalms 124:1-5 ▼

1 A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

2 if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

3 then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

5 Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
