Psalms 124:2-8 ▼

2 If the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,

3 then they would have swallowed us alive in their burning anger against us.

4 Then the waters would have engulfed us; the torrent would have swept over us;

5 the raging waters would have swept over us.

6 Praise the LORD, who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth.

7 We have escaped like a bird from the hunter’s net; the net is torn, and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of Yahweh, the Maker of heaven and earth.
