Psalms 124:2-8 ▼

2 If it had not been the LORD who was for us, When men rose up against us,

3 Then they had swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, The stream had gone over our soul;

5 Then the proud waters Had gone over our soul.'

6 Blessed be the LORD, Who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; The snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.
